Vintage Rod Stewart Atlantic Crossing 12" Vinyl LP 1975 Warner Japan Obi Rock

Used

Black vinyl LP grades visually around Very Good Plus (VG+) with strong gloss and scattered light sleeve scuffs and faint hairline surface marks on both fast and slow sides plus minor dust and fingerprint smudging that would benefit from a careful cleaning; no deep scratches, warps, or edge chips seen and the Burbank palm tree Warner Bros. center labels are clean and fully legible without writing or stickers. Gatefold cardboard jacket grades visually around Very Good Plus (VG+) with light ring-wear sheen and overall surface rubbing to the front and back fantasy city artwork, mild corner bumps, and edge and spine wear including small color-loss spots along the bottom border; inside the gatefold the black-and-white Rod Stewart portrait panel shows scattered light surface rubbing and noticeable tan foxing spots near the spine but no seam splits.
