Condition: VG++ (Vinyl and Labels)/M- (Inner Sleeve)/VG++ (Cover):
This copy is a warehoyse find. It was distributed unsealed and bought by us when released - then sealed by us - misfiled and forgotten about. It was duck up - opened and checked - essentially never played.

Vinyl has a couple of very faint scuffs or marks - which must be contributed to production - probably from being inserted in the coarse card inner. Labels are mint - vinyl overall graded near mint.

Inner sleeve is mint - cover has extremely marginal corner rubbing and is graded near mint - a simply extremely nice copy.
