The exact matrices of this record are the second two listed above. However, those are listed for a pressing that has the red label but the record being sold here has the mustard label which would be the first matrices listed above. Either way it is a censored gatefold version from 1969

The brownElektra inner sleeve is included and it looks to be in great condition, but all three edges were taped possibly preemptively. The gatefold sleeve looks great. There is typical shelf/edge wear, a small bit of the outer layer of the cover was torn off (see photo), a crease on the bottom right corner (when looking at the back), what look like staple holes on the back cover, a small discoloration near the song list on the back cover, a discoloration line inside the gatefold, and small pieces of tape at the top of the fold and along the edge of the opening. Near the latter piece of tape, there a little wave on the back cover. The tape along the fold could have also been preemptive. The cover and sleeve still look very nice overall and are VG.

The vinyl is glossy and plays well but does have its fair share of paper scuffs and a couple of scratches none of which affect play. VG. Overall this is a really nice copy.
