COLUMBIA Long Playing Microgroove; 1959 "Clef Series" supervised by Norman Granz.

See:

Both sides of the LP have mirror sheens with no sounding scratches; side 2 is near perfect with only a few very fine hairlines (much better than 'Excellent+' but not mint); side 1 has 2 long, very superficial, hairlines (which do not sound) where the stylus has drifted; there are a few feint clicks on the opening track otherwise it plays through with no other significant extraneous noise. Unmarked labels; not dished; both sides dust free with very clean, big, wide spectrum sound.

The original printed poly lined inner sleeve is excellent and not split.

The flipback heavy card sleeve has no marking or major defects with only the slightest edge rubbing all round. The spine is near perfect with crisp titling.
