Vinyl is as clean as a whistle, I have uploaded a video in one of the quieter sections for you to check,
More photos and videos can be supplied if needed.
I've rated the vinyl as Excellent,
Please see photographs for condition of sleeve and inner sleeve, nothing more that to be expected, slight wear marks on both, overall I would say it's looks pretty well for being 49 years old.
At the very end of taking photos when I popped the vinyl back in it's sleeve I noticed someone has written on the inside of the inner sleeve, I have shown this in the photos

Bit of blurb about the album below
"Animals" is the tenth studio album by English progressive rock group Pink Floyd, and was released in January 1977. A concept album, it provides a scathing critique of the social-political conditions of 1970s Britain, and presents a marked change in musical style from their earlier work. It uses animals as metaphors to critique the social and political climate of 1970s Britain. The album's three main songs, "Dogs," "Pigs (Three Different Ones)," and "Sheep," represent different classes and their struggles within the system.
"Dogs" is the album's longest track, occupying most of the first side of the vinyl. It is a complex, multi-part composition that critiques the ruthless and cutthroat nature of business and ambition. The track showcases intricate guitar work and David Gilmour's emotive vocals, making it one of the album's highlights.
This track "Pigs (Three Different Ones)" targets figures of authority and power, metaphorically represented as pigs. With Roger Waters' sardonic lyrics and the use of a talk box guitar effect, "Pigs" stands out as one of the album's most memorable pieces.
"Sheep" criticises the blindly obedient masses, likened to livestock. The song features aggressive rhythms and dynamic shifts, building towards a climactic ending that emphasises its theme of rebellion against oppressive forces.
