Here is the Discogs entry for this issue of the LP: https://www.discogs.com/The-Cure-Faith/release/2264744
Play-grading: By and large, the record sounds great. Between songs and in the quieter sections of a couple of songs surface noise is definitely audible, but no surface noise is audible once the music reaches a certain pitch.
Overall, the outer sleeve is in good condition. In keeping with its 39-year age the sleeve does have some wear. There is one corner bend, some light creasing, and minor edge wear—please see all photos. There is no writing, tears, seam-splits, cut-outs, stains, or discoloration.
The inner sleeve is in very good condition, with just a hint of ring-wear on one side—see photos.
I will remove the inner sleeve and vinyl from the outer sleeve to prevent seam-splits in transit and I will package the LP using an oversized, rigid mailer and reinforced cardboard.
$4.00 shipping (USPS Media Mail).
