The vinyl surfaces appear unmarked under normal light - superficial hairlines under bright light - nothing of any audio consequence
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Superb sound quality (as you would expect from Decca who cut the finest sounding records of the period) and my play-check at loud volume found no audible issues of note - plays beautifully throughout with a much cleaner sound than many unplayed copies I have seen
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT
Fine example - good, clean and solid with no damage to the envelope tab or slot - slight rub to the edges - nothing major
