Rare, Precious & Beautiful - Volume 2 - Original 1968 UK Polydor label 12-track Stereo LP

Original 1968 UK Polydor Special series 12-track LP featuring early recordings by the Australian trio - taken from early Australian only Leedon label singles and debut album.

Vinyl has the generic red company labels with top 'half album' logo above thin, but large fonted company name.

Vinyl is housed in a generic, era specific, and polylined company inner sleeve with 'Plastic Bags' warning box - ultimately in a Ernest J. Day manufactured picture cover.

Condition: VG++ (Vinyl and Labels)/VG++ (Cover):
Vinyl is bright and shiny - has a single very light and superficial mark - hardly any sleeve inflicted wear, a touch of inaudible residue from the inner sleeve - otherwise completely without signs of play or handling.
Labels has a single or two light, simple and superficial traces in the immediate vicinity of the centre hole - otherwise mint. Vinyl is overall graded near mint.

Cover has hardly any signs of handling or storage - a very few barely noticeable - tiny to small - wrinkles from spine and a single light one along upper left-back vinyl outline - otherwise just a touch of lower corners rubbing.
Laminate is otherwise fresh and crisp - colors underneath bright, unfaded and deep. Seams are straight and perfect, spine writhout pressure and opening without rubbing - a simply extremely nice copy.
