CONDITION:

EX/EX

We always strictly grade our records using the Record Collector Standard (Side A graded first))

DISC: The disc is bright, clean and glossy.  To the naked eye there are no visible marks to the playing area.

I have played both sides of this disc and consider it to be a super example of a great album - it plays without fault and remains quiet between the tracks. 

COVER:  The non-laminated cover unfolds into a huge poster that is clean and complete.  It is free of any writings with just normal wear to the folds that is commensurate with the age of the cover.

It can be considered an extremely good example that I grade as EX.

I will provide further photographs and information if required.
