The Vinyl:
This is the original thick heavier chunky slab of vinyl only found like this on the earliest pressings. On visual inspection I can’t see any needle scratches or indeed any marks that would cause any clicks or pops. Any marks that could possibly be seen angled in strong light would be light whyspy sleeve removal type only. The playing surface is lovely like new in my opinion.
The Audio Quality:
I have not played this vinyl but I would expect a near as perfect sound reproduction. Please ask if you require a play test?

The Labels:
These are the original 1st issue custom Labels: barely one or two feint spidering can barely be seen angled to the lighton one side only there is little if no spindle wear the hole is perfectly round. Light rubbing on the labels to mention with age only.
The Record Sleeve:
This is the original thick card lyric record sleeve has no splits or tears. The vinyl is now always stored seperately from the vinyl.
The Cover:
This is the original 1st issue un laminated gatefold cover . There are no creases on the front to mention this is nice and straight as it should be No edge splits or tares. The rear is also lovely like new, I would grade this at least excellent plus to NEAR MINT in my opinion.
The Posters:
There are two poster enclosed. Note: There is a little mark/residue on the rear where this has been put on a wall with blue tack at some point.
