Vinyl has a single superlight and short mark at the end of Side 1 - far from audible and extremely light - combined with a very light degree of sleeve wear - labels has a single or two only slightly scattered spindle traces - both vinyl and labels are graded close to perfect.
Innersleeve has light vinyl outline and very light signs of handling - NO splits, rips, tears or wrinting. Cover hasa light degree of short laminate wrinkles from edges - a more pronouced one along lower mid opening and upper right back corner - all from milder cover bends. Cover is otherwise very nice - barely any laminate wear, intact seams, almost no corners wear or denting...fine deep colour - graded straight close to near perfect/excellent.
