CONDITION

Labels: EXCELLENT +

A clean and bright pair with a handful of tiny spindle trails around each centre hole.

Visual: EXCELLENT

Super-clean, deep-gloss playing surfaces bearing just a few harmless paper hairlines and inner-sleeve removal marks beneath halogen light.

Audio: EXCELLENT +

A 1st class sounding copy has been carefully and little played and has no trace of any playwear whatsoever. Aside from a little vinyl background between tracks, there is little to fault on this mono masterpiece.

Cover: VERY GOOD

A little tired with general storagewear especially to the spine but no splits or any other major faults.
