Vinyl is housed in front-laminated flip-back picture cover - printed by Ernest J. Day & Co. - golden hexagonal 'STEREO' sticker on lower right back.

Condition: VG++ (Vinyl)/VG+(+) (Labels)/VG++ (Cover):
Vinyl is wonderfully lustrous and has almost no signs of play or handling... a touch of barely noticeable sleeve wear.
Labels are free from spindlemarks - Side 1 label has an area of easily detectable sticker glue residue - Side 2 label is plain mint. This looks like an album played once or twice at the max - the stored.
Cover has a few spine wrinkles but is otherwise perfect - fresh, deep colours and cresp intact laminate - clean, straight seams and sharp corners... a very nice copy.
