Condition:VG+ (Vinyl and Labels)/VG+ (Inner Sleeve)/VG+ (Picture Cover):

Vinyl has been used directly from the coarse card interior...  not overly judging from the labels which has a couple of handfuls of spindletraces. Vinyl has subsequently a lighter degree of fine and light sleeve scuffs and marks only - seemingly nothing inflicted by a needle - a decent VG+. 

Inner sleeve has light inevitable vinyl imprint - not wear - as well as light wear to seams - no splits or pressure points - and likewise corners rubbing - graded VG+.

Cover has nice front and back cover centers - has the usual faint vertical lines of rubbing from manufacturing as well as very light wear along top and bottom vinyl outline - otherwise just a little wrinkling from edges and minor seam and corners rubbing - overall just a series of marginal imperfection - nothing that takes the joy away from the cover artwork - a nice VG+.
