Glossy gatefold sleeve has shelfwear at corners & along edges,ringmarking & scuffing,laminate creasing, some small tears along opening edges,small splits along upper edges & a small sticker/mark upper right corner on sleeve front The spine has shelfwear & paper damage & is split midway along-is only just intact & is unreadable. The inner photo gatefold has ringmarking & scuffing & laminate creases. Overall is worn & just in Acceptable condition for age & fragility with no writing.

Labels have some smudges,spindle trails & small area of paper damage on upper area of C side label-otherwise are clean.(see photos)

Vinyls have very good lustre-have lots of light paperscuffs & hairlines but both play through very well with just some very light surface noise,clicks & pops-still sounds great when played with bright,clean sound!  
I grade all vinyl (except still sealed) both by sight and play them through on both A & B sides.
All photos of vinyl are taken with a flash so any imperfections are highlighted.
