COVER: The 1st issue Garrod & Lofthouse Patents Pending outside-laminated cover is in Very Good+ condition. Cream-colored covers show the slightest wear, and this example has a light LP impression, some wear in the laminate in a few spots, and some bumped corners. The inside gatefold openings have adhesive residue alongside the edges. Overall, this prone-to-wear cover is in respectable condition.

INNER SLEEVE: The original Decca polythene-lined die-cut inner sleeve is in Very Good+ condition, with signs of storage wear and age-toning.

GRADING INFORMATION I grade conservatively. MINT is a sealed LP; NEAR MINT is an open LP/cover
with virtually no signs of use/wear; EXCELLENT is a well-looked-after LP/cover
with light signs of use/wear; VERY GOOD+ is an LP/cover with average signs of
use/wear but is not trashed. I use unforgiving sunlight and incandescent light to visually grade each LP. I don’t make unverifiable claims as to how many plays a non-sealed LP has had. SHIPPING
