The Vinyl: Visually on all 4 sides of Vinyl just look Superb and look basically in a UNMARKED condition this is due to only ever being played very lightly just a handful of times very carefully over it's lifetime and are in an Excellent or better  looking condition -Vinyl looks nearly Flawless - On close visual inspection on Sides 1-2-3-4 they show No actual scratches to be seen only just the odd light wispy line or very feint minimal hairline trace on surfaces that have occured whilst removing vinyl from the inner-sleeves with No other surface blemishes across the vinyl - On audio playback assessment there are No skips,jumps or repeats and shows No  other annoying  audio noise distortions during playback only on the occasion when the very quiet tracks are playing and on run ins inbetween tracks that you may get some very very light crackle for a second or two but nothing of any consequence that spoils your overall enjoyment of this exceptional Album - All Labels are in a near Perfect unmarked condition with really absolutely No spindle hole wear being evident on any of the sides (check photos in gallery) - Vinyl still has all it's Original lustre and Jet black high glossy shiny sheen 

On the recent playback assessment the Records still plays Outstanding with all it's Original and dynamic driving stereo audio sound with brilliant crystal clear clarity along with the fantastic full stereo production that would fill any room Just as you would expect from an early 1st Pressing!!!

 The Front/Back of Covers/Spine: Are in Excellent condition totally intact crisp and clean with nice straight edges - Total sleeve Laminate on Cover is in Superb condition and Shows No Laminate lifting at all to the outside or inside of the cover only some very minor peeling along the spine - Shows very very minimal discolouration on cover outside and inside still shows very much the Original shiny White Clear Sharp Colour - Absolutely NO Ringwear,NO Indentations,Tears,Splits,ink Marks or Stains - With only very light minimal laminate creases and minimal edge and corner bump wear that has been obtained during the storage process over it's 42 year lifetime Overall a Great looking copy - This is mainly due to the plastic cover protection on Album since Day One - Probably hard to find a better One!    

Labels: On examination it' has only shows very light wear with very few spindle trails evident - All 4 Labels are spotless and virtually Near Mint looking in condition with NO ink marks,blemishes or any other wear or tear

Inner Sleeves: The Black Original sleeves (made of  soft paper) what a nightmare to keep in one piece! unfortunately these 2 have some slight wear and tear one has no seam splits with only some creasing and minor nicks on top opening edge and center hole the other one has side middle seam splits with some creasing and  minor nicks on top opening edge and center hole but overall they are both very clean with no other markings or major blemishes on them  

      All of my records That I'm selling are from my own personel collection that I have collected for over 40 years and which have been generally kept and looked after to the highest standard.

I'm currently starting to sort through some of my other Rare vinyl records that have been played only a few times - which are mainly UK 1st  PRESSINGS - which are all in Excellent to Mint Condition - Mainly due to Covers/Vinyl have been kept in plastic covers for all of there Life Span and this is one of them
