Condition: VG+(+) (Vinyls and Labels)/VG++ (Cover):
Vinyl still retains its original lustre and has some degree of superlight sleeve scuffs - nothing inflicted by a needle, nothing audible. Labels has 2 - 3 light spindletraces slightly scattered within the centre ring - labels are graded near perfect - vinyl is overall close to near perfect/excellent.

Cover has almost no edge wrinkling - likewise just the very faintest corners or seam wear - perfect inner spread - easily a near perfect cover - very nice.
