   Considering the prestige of the label it's a shame I found it still sealed, because I'm very curious to hear how it sounds. From my research it is a very compelling and idiosyncratic piece of music. Perhaps if you buy it you can make me a tape. I'll pay for the shipping. 
Thanks for looking!
All photos were taken by me from the copy of this exact record and were not altered in any way. I grade with an inclination toward “underselling," however I did not give this record a wet cleaning. I believe such measures are best left to buyers and their preferred methods. 
This Authentic Vintage Vinyl Phonograph LP Record Album ships absolutely 100% accurate to my description above in a professional cardboard record mailer with a stiff cardboard insert. The record itself comes in a brand new static-free and highly protective Original Master inner sleeve (unless original sleeve is NM and adequately protective) secured behind the jacket sleeve and to prevent seem splits, bound together within a fresh poly outer sleeve that prevents scuffing.
You should feel at ease knowing that you are buying this piece with absolute confidence. This Analog phonographic format sound recording is sold with the guarantee that it will meet all expectations presented by me here, whether you use a direct drive turntable like Technics Pioneer Sony or Denon or belt drive made by brands like Thorens Lenco BSR Garrard & Philips.  This record will sound pristine and proper.

All photos and label scans are taken from the copy of the record for sale and are not altered in any way. I grade with “underselling” on my mind while using the simple scale of Sealed/Mint, NM, EXCELLENT, VG+, VG.
