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. The playing surface is lovely. Visually looks totally un played like new 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 loud 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 to near mint in my opinion.

Side 2. “1 4” “TB)” (“HTM” Hand Etched On Side two run off grooves)
The Labels:
These are the CUSTOM 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 becoming fragile at the bottom edge this is now stored seperately from the vinyl.
The Cover:
This is the original unlaminated 1ST ISSUE cover. There are no real nasty creases to mention any rubbing wear you have to look for to notice. Very light crease to mention at the opening edge at the rear but you have to look to notice in my opinion. no splits or tears graded at least excellent plus to very, very near as mint in my opinion. All text at the spine is legible.
The Postcard
This is the original 1st issue serated postcard as new condition without creases.
