siggesting this copy to be manufactured by the Baarn, Holland, based Phonodisc B.V. - from the 1st mastering, 1st set of fathers and mothers - 1st set of stampers.

Vinyl is housed in a fully laminated picture sleeve.

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

Vinyl is a such bright and shiny - has a couple of fine, superficial and inaudible drop marks paired with some degree of very fine and thin sleeve inflicted lines and paper scuffs? by far nothing audible.

Labels has 2 - 3 handfuls spindletraces - slightly scattered - by far mostly within the center ring - no wear to the center ring itself. Vinyl is graded VG+ but plays far better - straight and with hardly any noise and no clicks - with a really fine sound - great dynamics and volume, instruments easily differentiable - a play grading would be near mint.

Cover has light laminate only wear along label and vinyl outline affecting the shine of the album only.

Cover has quite a few light and small wrinkles from edges - a couple of thumbnail wrinkles along opening. There is a thin line of laminate lift along spine.
Seams are without splits - almost perfect top seam, easily readable and likewise almost perfect spine - numerous points of cover shelling along lower seam. opening edges has some degree of rubbing and wear.
Corners are rubbed - previous owner coloured the rubbed spine corners black.
Cover displays a series milder to not so tough imperfections which altogether inflicts a close to VG+ grading? a nice and enjoyable cover - but not for the discerning collector.
