CONDITION
Record (Near Mint): This extremely well looked after copy retains all of its deep-gloss, 'as new' looking surfaces which are completely undulled by improper storage or overplay. Just one or two light marks are visible in strong daylight consistent with careful handling and play but there are no major blemishes anywhere. Close examination directly beneath my halogen desk lamp reveal nothing more than a few barely visible wispy paper hairlines but no further signs of wear either side.
Cover (Near Mint): It appears here in virtually the same condition it left the shops in 1964, and has been carefully and correctly stored in non-smoking environment. The front panel is pristine with no scratching, damage or creasing to the high-gloss laminate. There is not even a single 'thumbnails' wrinkle anywhere. The opening edges are clean and sharp with a little age discoloration along the rear opening and just a handful of tiny 'pushes' to the rear edge. The rear panel is immaculate and white with no marks, writing or missing paper whatsoever. All flipbacks, seams and the spine are in perfect condition.
Inner-sleeve (Excellent): Clean & crisp with just a few unavoidable storage creases but no splits, tears or writing.
