The sleeve - has a bit of wear and tear , rubbing around edges ,as you would expect. intact though and nice inside gatefold, please view all photos
The original inner - often missing or in pieces,is included. Intact at the sides, split at the bottom (a replacement inner to house the vinyl is included) - see photos
The plum/orange labels look really good, no stickers or writing, very nice overall
The vinyl - looks really good too, there are a couple of scuffs and light hairlines visible on close inspection, no deep scratches and nothing that impacts the playing
The playback - is excellent overall, barely a smidge of background noise, there were a couple of light ticks/bit of light crackle between some tracks and in some quiet bits (eg start of stairway) ; a thoroughly enjoyable listen all round - Side two sounds particularly good...
More vinyl listed please take a look; happy to combine orders where possible...
