Lovely first pressing of Gentle Giant's second album. Issued by Vertigo Records in 1971.
The gatefold cover is in lovely condition with some wear to the opening edge and storage marks on the front. Overall VG+/EX-
The vinyl is in fantastic condition with its original swirl inner sleeve. It looks and sounds near mint. The only real visual imperfection is the line in the run out area on side B (see photo). This is not audible and does not affect the last track. Record sits perfectly flat. Labels are lovely with no spindle marks. The original Vertigo inner sleeve is excellent - just a bit darkened with age. Play tested throughout, the sound is glorious. Overall the vinyl is EX+
The record will be packaged very carefully in a cruciform box with the record removed from the sleeve to avoid damage to seams. A new poly lined inner will be provided (as shown in the photos).
I will combine postage - if you buy more than one LP please wait for my invoice before paying.
