Vinyl is housed in Hipgnosis designed matte gatefold cover.

Condition: 2xVG++ (Vinyl and Labels)/VG+(+) (Cover):
Vinyl is bright and shiny - hardly any signs of play or handling - almost no sleeve wear... extremely nice.

Side 1 & 2 labels has a single, simple, short and superficial spindletrace. Graded near mint.
Side 3 & 4 labels has no indication of play or handling what so ever... obviously not an album listened to more than a very few times and cared for when so.

Cover is nice - a little light smudging along vinyl outline, a few light age stains - a little superficial top-back creasing and a mild wrinkle in the lower spine corner area from a gentle cover bend? intact, wear free seams, nice corners... only lower opening corners has a very marginal dent... overall a simply very nice cover - graded close to near mint/excellent.
