Vinyl is clean and plays great with clear strong sound. Side 1 plays EX, no clicks etc and no significant background noise although there is some visible scuffing. Side 2 also plays EX apart from a few soft clicks at the end of Track 3 and start of track 4 caused by a small scratch (not deep).
The spindle holes look more worn than they are, the hole is still a good fit on the spindle.
The sleeve is in EX condition, without significant wear to edges and excellent spine (it was kept in a plastic sleeve), just some very minor laminate creasing. There's a white fingerprint by the opening, it might clean off. The rear has a some light browning near the opening edge, please see photos.

Gradings, when used, refer to the UK Record Collector Magazine standard. I would only use "mint" for genuinely unplayed records.
