Disc
Labels: NEAR MINT
An exceptionally clean & unworn set bearing just 2/3 tiny spindle trails around the side 2 centre hole only.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Factory-fresh unworn playing surfaces which are 'as new' and unmarked in strong daylight, with just a few wispy paper hairlines from initial inner-sleeve removal and a sparkling rainbow shine beneath my unforgiving halogen desk lamp. No upgrade necessary here.
Sound Quality: MINT
Played once or twice at most and audibly flawless throughout.
Cover: EXCELLENT +
A fine example of this iconic cover type which bears minimal shelfwear and would be tough to upgrade.
The front panel is clean & bright with just a trace of storage rubbing but no 'thumbnail' wrinkles or any other creasing.
The corners are in nice shape with just a little shelfwear to the lower right and a trace of wear to the rear opening edge.
Like the front, the rear panel is free from any 'thumbnails' and bears just a small handful of tiny spine wrinkles.
Both panels inside the gatefold are pristine with no wear or missing paper to the upper flipover edges.
All seams of both pockets are smooth & unstressed & the spine is clean & fully worded with no flaking or missing laminate.
Inner-sleeve: NEAR MINT
Clean & white where it should be with just an unavoidable light disc impression but no writing, tears or seam splits.
Cut-out sheet: MINT
