Matrix numbers: 612003 A v 1 & 612003 B v 1

CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT +
A clean, undamaged set with just a small number of extremely faint spindle trials around each unworn centre hole
Visual: EXCELLENT +
Pristine deep-gloss playing surfaces which are completely unmarked in strong daylight. Even closer inspection beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp fails to find anything more than a few barely visible paper hairlines and a sparkling rainbow shine.
Sound Quality: EXCELLENT +
The great sounding copy has received minimal careful play on good equipment and the sound quality throughout is clean & clear with no trace of any groove/playwear distortion or any other significant audible defects. My single careful playcheck at volume detected little more than a trace of low-level vinyl background on the spoken introduction to track 1, side 1 and between tracks, but certainly no clicks, pops or any other audible distractions of any kind
Cover: VERY GOOD +
A respectable example of this vibrant cover which bears light storagewear to its outer panels, but no significant blemishes or wear
There is light shelf wear to each corner and also a little to the rear opening edge
Both panels of the inside of the gatefold are unmarked and both seams and the unworded spine are unstressed & unsplit
Lyric sheet: VERY GOOD
Clean & fully intact but with many light handling/storage creases
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT
