1) MONO LP - Decca DL 4892 - Condition of record is a high VG+ with a small amount of light surface marks which cannot be felt and will not affect play.  Cover is a bit of an ugly duckling - Condition of cover is G at best with splits for the entire length of the spine and the left hand halves of the top and bottom edges; I have carefully and neatly repaired these splits by taping from the inside; paper outer covering is missing along the split areas.  There is a 4" area along the bottom of the front cover where an adjacent album cover was at home point stuck to this cover and forcibly separated, leaving some paper stuck to this album cover and also a couple of worn areas on this cover.  Cover also has a small drill hole near its lower right corner indication a promo or a cutout copy, some writing in blue marker on the back cover, some contact and ring wear and some additional general wear along the edges and on the corners.  Cover has no tears or stickers.  Decca Records stock inner sleeve is in nice shape with no splits or tears, just a little slight wrinkling and the aforementioned drill hole.

2) STEREO LP - Decca DL 74892 - Condition of record is a SOLID NM with no visible surface marks.  Condition of cover is a low VG+ with some prominent ring wear and some contact wear and some wear and flaking along the edges and on the corners.  Decca Records stock inner sleeve is in nice shape with no splits or tears, just some slight creases and wrinkling.

Condition of record is a real nice EX with just a couple of light surface marks which cannot be felt and will not affect play.  Condition of cover is a high VG+ with the original shrinkwrap still surrounding the cover, and with a few small wrinkles and a little wear along the open edge and on the corners on the open edge.  Cover has no water damage, tears, writing, or stickers.
