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 loud clicks or pops. Any marks that could possibly be seen anglerd in strong light would be light whyspy sleeve removal type only but I struggle to see any at all. There is a minute pressing blemish and I mean minute about two mm dot that I noticed which had little effect on the audio causing two very light ticks only but mainly obliterated in the audio The playing surface is lovely. Visually looks totally unplayed in my opinion.
The Audio Quality:
I have played this vinyl at very loud volume prior to this listing on a top system. The audio is cristal clear and vibrant through out no distortion or any signs of groove wear at all. I heard no clicks or pops during the play of this vinyl. Lovely sounding copy. Any static or isolated ticks were minimal this album has genuinly only been played two times ever by me only.Audio graded at least excellent plus near mint in my opinion.

The Labels:
These are the GREEN HARVEST Labels: NO spidering can be seen this looks unplayed in my opinion. and there is little if no spindle wear the hole is perfectly round. This has obviously only had two plays ever.
The Record Sleeve:
This is the original thick card lyric record sleeve as good as new.
The Cover:
This is the original unlaminated WIDE SPINE 1ST ISSUE Garod & Lofthouse gate fold cover. There are no real creases to mention any rubbing wear you have to look for to notice.no splits or tears graded at least excellent plus to very near as mint in my opinion.
