Grading 

Vinyl - MINT-

Not often do I take the risk with labelling a record as MINT- but I really have no issues with labelling this record STONE COLD MINT- 

AUDIO IS PERFECTION.

100% MUSEUM QUALITY. 

JUST ONE PLAY. 

Sleeve - MINT-

Same with the sleeve, hands down with no doubt a clear STONE COLD MINT- sleeve. Just view the pictures, absolutely stunning. It's so perfect it's a physical pleasure to handle the sleeve. It's so smooth an flat. The opening edges are still so fresh look so sharp that they could cut your finger. The spine is just something else. It's like it's been suspended in zero gravity for the last 40 odd years, it's just astonishing at how pristine the sleeve is, well the whole package actually. Never have I seen such a Mint- complete set.  

Inside the gatefold is like staring directly into the sun through high powered binoculars, it's blinding. The inside is so fresh and white it's practically a miracle. Call your local priest and have the record baptised!
