Vinyl still retains its original lustre - has a single light, short and inaudible surface mark combined with just a little faint sleeve wear.

Side 2 label has alight degree of superfical spindlewear - only slightly scattered within the centre ring - Side 1 label is mint.

Insert has only light signs of handling and is graded near mint.

Cover has a tiny dot of mid-right front rubbing and a single wrinkle along back opening - otherwise superb centres. Perfect inner spread.

Cover has a very few spine wrinkles, but seams and edges are otherwise nice - intact and straight. Corners are pointy and only opening corners have the very faintest rubbing... easily readable spine which has only the utmost light degree of pressure and no opening corners rubbing - very nice - overall graded close to near perfect/excellent. A very nice copy overall.
