Description
East coast pressing has "S" in block letters on runout and center diameter ring indicating Bloomfield New Jersey Pressing plant matrix V6-5008 MGS-558 REV.
1968 repress vinyl in shiny solid VG+ condition. Very light faint scuffs that is hard to see. Vinyl plays clean, the nicest sound and condition I have seen for this lp! Very little play. High gloss and solid sound!
The cover is a solid VG+ as well. The banana is 98% there and retains its vivid yellow coloring. Looks like the top 1/4 was pulled up and placed down at some point, and a portion of the stem is gone, and the bottom of the stem creased. The edges are solid and crisp except for a small spot on the spine and corner dings. The white background on the back and front is clean and bright, not yellowed at all. There's a bit of ring wear on the back but otherwise solid shape!
This is one of the nicest copies I've seen of this album, looks and sound amazing!
