Vinyl has the generic cut/full Apple motif company labels - machine stamped matrix information:
Side 1: SAPCOR 10 A-1, mother/stamper 1 M

Placing this copy as a 1st pressing - manufactured from the first set of master matrices - first set of mothers and early stampers.

Vinyl is housed in an outer laminated unipak picture cover.

Condition: VG++ (Vinyl and Labels)/VG+(+) (Cover):

Vinyl is bright and shiny - has a touch of paper scuffing only - by far nothing needle inflicted.
Labels have from a couple to less than a handful superficial and simple spinletraces - placed in the immediate vicinity of the centrehole on Side 1 label - a little more scattered on Side 2 label - albeit still within the centrering though. Vinyl is overall graded close to mint.

Picture cover is beautiful except for a ca 1 cm split from lower spine and a couple of hardly noticeable wrinkles from spine inducing a couple of very small areas of laminate lift - this is a very nice copy - graded close to near mint/excellent.
