Absolutely beautiful shiny NM glossy vinyl with no scratches or scuffs.  Original rice paper inner sleeve intact.
Cover is in EX condition- there is some discoloration on the back top  right corner where a sticker used to be (see pic). Beautiful strong legible spine and bright graphics. This is an incredible example of this classic LP!
