Cover: Howards Printers 1st pressing unlaminated gatefold cover. No writings/doodles or seam splits. Inside of gatefold is excellent. The unlaminated white front & rear cover is very hard to keep clean. Excellent physical shape but with a few grubby marks.
Inner sleeves: Original black poly-lined inner sleeves are near mint.
Vinyl: Near Mint. Stunning condition for its age. Played 2/3 times only. Not played since 1972. Would benefit from a light clean to bring back to its best.
Labels: Near Mint.
Postage £4 (UK) £6 (EUROPE) & £8 (REST OF THE WORLD)

Excellent - The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality.
Very Good - The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch.
Good - The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches.

Poor - The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc
Bad - The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
