I have scoured records (excuse the pun) online for copies in Australia but haven't found a single one. Also if you visit Discogs and check for US or UK copies, no-one has anything resembling Near Mint. So, an Australian copy is nigh on impossible to find... a Near Mint copy in any country is just as impossible!! = TRUE RARITY!!! ## The Vinyl is described as Near Mint & was fully play-tested earlier today playing with a wonderful velvety sound, and far less background noise than other vinyl from the same era ... obviously no skips or stops. Very few signs of play. Maybe 2 or 3 extremely fine hairlines and/or sleeve marks. Only a couple of spindle marks to both labels. The Vinyl has retained nearly all of its rich waxy lustre. Cont'd... The Cover is described as Excellent. Previous owner's name ink-stamped on top front & bottom rear. There is some visible edge/spine & corner-wear. There are some fine cracks to spine & edges with associated wrinkles. There is some minor ring wear to front & verso. There are some colour losses to edges & spine. There are some areas of foxing to front & verso. No seam splits of any kind. Couple of minor stains here & there. Couple of fine scratches to front cover of no consequence. Please see attached photos...
