CONDITION REPORT:
Sleeve (VG / G): Original front-laminated, flip-back cover. Vibrant colours on front. Back cover shows aging, minor staining, and ring wear. Top edge has seam splits typical of its age (see photos). No heavy ink writing.
Vinyl (VG): Heavyweight 1965 vinyl retains a lovely bright sheen. Under direct light, some superficial hairlines and light handling scuffs are visible. Plays through with that classic, deep 1960s mono punch.
Labels: Clean textured black/silver Fontana labels with minimal spindle wear.
Inner Sleeve:** Includes original period-correct paper sleeve.
SHIPPING:
Professionally packed in a heavy-duty vinyl mailer with the record removed from the jacket to prevent any further seam splits during transit. Tracked domestic and worldwide shipping available.
