Condition As Follows:

Please see all photos for condition.
I do not know how to professionally grade records.
There are minor scuffs on the record that do not affect play.
No skipping and I did not hear any popping and cracking on my turntable.
This will be "As Is" because all turntables are different but I do not foresee any problems.
The cover has some spine wear but you can clearly read the artist and title.
The cover is also damaged on the bottom left corner (see photo).
Contains original lyric sleeve that has a 2 inch slit at the bottom.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
This will be a 5 day auction starting at only .99 cents with media mail shipping of $3.99.
A nice addition to any record collection.
If you are looking for a "pristine" copy I would suggest you purchase the sealed copies available on eBay.
I strive for happy customers and try to describe items the best I can.
Thanks for looking and good luck.

Album Notes
Guns N' Roses: W. Axl Rose (vocals, synthesizer, percussion); Slash (acoustic & electric guitars); Izzy Stradlin (guitar, background vocals, percussion); Duff "Rose" McKagan (bass, background vocals); Steven Adler (drums).
Recorded at Rumbo Studios, Canoga Park, California; Take One Studio, Burbank, California; Can Am Studio, Tarzana, California.
German edition in its original sleeve design.
Already a legend in its own meagre lifetime, this startling debut shrouded itself in controversy, from its original Robert Williams artwork to Axl Rose's unblinking accounts of LA's underbelly. This mawkish storytelling, combined with a brattish collective swagger and a surprisingly mature approach to their songs, guaranteed Guns N' Roses a speedy notoriety that was to serve their legend brilliantly. From the laconic "Paradise City" to the achingly beautiful "Sweet Child O' Mine," or the furious "Welcome To The Jungle," the record brims with a brutal integrity. An album they could never surpass even if they had stayed together.

Editorial Reviews
Rated #27 in Rolling Stone's 100 Best Albums Of The Eighties survey.
Rolling Stone (11/01/1989)

Included in Q's Best Metal Albums Of All Time - The sweariest rock album ever made...a riotous celebration of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll...

Q (07/01/2001)

[T]he chiming intro and druggy harmonies of 'Paradise City' reached back to the Byrds.
Spin 

A genuine rock classic and one of the greatest albums of the last 20 years....It was loud, nasty, caused public outcry and sold over 25 million copies.
Kerrang 

Slash's leering, boogie-rock riffs reeked of danger and the Stones...
Alternative Press 

Shrieked in registers so high they never wanna come down....The greatest album ever made about how you can't run away from yourself.
