Here's an original US FIRST STEREO 6 EYE copy of MILES DAVIS'S MASTERPIECE LP SKETCHES OF SPAIN from 1960 # CS8271.  Just one of Miles Davis's many turns, This one an orchestral jazz LP that was as influential as it was beautiful.  It takes you on a ride to places in your mind.  The collaboration with Gil Evans was great and garnered them a Grammy in 1961 for best original Jazz composition.  An all star cast plays on this with Miles on Trumpet & Flugelhorn, Jimmy Cobb on drums, Elvin Jones percussion, and Paul Chambers on Bass. 
The  front cover front and back, spine and seams are in beautiful EXCELLENT CONDITION, with one exception - The paper on the front cover has lifted off the cardboard in a wavy pattern in the center of the cover from top to bottom.  It looks like possibly from water or humidity.  The cover colors are not affected by it, and it is not torn.  It kind of makes you feel like this LP is from 1960, almost 60 years old.  The bottom seam shows a touch of shelf wear. The spine is perfect, as is the back cover.  The VINYL plays great, but not perfect, There's some background sounds that's very low and mores on side 2 due to a visual scratch that runs across much of that side.  The music rises well above that, and there's no pops, skips, or jumps at all. It's an excellent playing LP.
