This record is in very good+ condition. It has just a few spindle marks visible on each label and there are no pen marks or scuffs anywhere. The centres show minimal wear and are not worn or loose. There is a few faint age spots in places but these are very minor and overall the labels are clean, bright and in nice condition.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a lovely lustre and show nothing obvious or really major. There is a few faint wispy lines, the odd sleeve mark, some blotchy marks and a few small marks in places. Overall it is visually excellent with nothing nasty or serious but does show light signs of use when viewed closely.

I play tested the record and it played well overall with good clarity for the most part but did have some occasional light noise or minor periods of interference in places. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no arm movement. The audio has no major levels of surface noise and is generally nice and clear as I say. I did note a few things however and it is not a perfect listen.

I noted some light 'crunches' in the run ins on both sides and also a few minor ones in the early stages of track 1, side 1. There was then a louder tic followed by 4 or 5 much lighter ones about 20 seconds into track 2. These are caused by a small 3mm mark and although the first sounds more noticeably the others are faint. The rest of side 1 plays at a solid 'EX' grade with no other major issues but the odd noise, splutter or minor amount of surface noise.

Side 2 has a few small marks in track 1 which cause light tics or crunches in parts of this track. They are not really loud but do sound in places. The rest of the side is generally clear though and overall both sides are still enjoyable but are not perfect. Due to the occasional light noise or minor amounts of interference I have graded at VG+ which I think is fair and accurate. 

The sleeve is in excellent condition. It has hardly any rubbing or wear to the edges and corners with the spine square, straight and clearly legible. There are no pen marks, scuffs or tears and little to no creasing. There is also barely any ring marks evident but there is light age related grubbiness to both sides. This is not severe for a white sleeve but it has tarnished or browned slightly around the edges and in places. Overall an excellent sleeve with no serious issues or much wear but the light general age related grubbiness as mentioned. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It contains its original plain white inner which is in excellent condition. It has no splits, tears or pen marks but has light creasing, ring marks and some age related discolouring.
