VINYL

STRONG EX, A REALLY NICE CLEAN AND LOOKED-AFTER 1968 FIRST PRESS MONO COPY. THE PLAYBACK IS EXCELLENT, WITH JUST A LITTLE FEINT BACKGROUND ON RUN-INS AND QUIETER PLACES. BEING PICKY HERE - IT'S A REALLY GREAT AUDIO ON MY LINN - CLEAR, LOUD AND DYNAMIC. VISUALLY, NICE CLEAN VINYL - PLEASE NOTE THERE IS SOME SMALL STORAGE WEAR AND FEINT SLEEVE REMOVALS, BUT THEY'RE JUST FEINT & VERY LIGHT SURFACE. 

A REALLY NICE LOOKED AFTER COPY, AND RARE ORIGINAL EARLY PRESS.

SLEEVE

LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE WITH CORRECT INTERIOR FLIPBACKS A NICE SOLID EX WITH SOME SMALL GENERAL STORAGE WEAR. THE NUMBER IS NICE AND CLEAR, AND THE LAMINATE CLEAN, WITH JUST SOME WEAR TO EDGES AND CORNERS. PLEASE SEE PHOTOS FOR MORE DETAILS. ONLY POINT TO NOTE IS SOME LAMINATE LIFT/WEAR ON THE WIDE SPINE. VINYL SHIPS IN NEW POLY LINED INNERS FOR PROTECTION. PHOTOS ARE NM. POSTER IS A NICE VG+ WITH SOME CREASING AND STORAGE WEAR. ORIGINAL BLACK INNERS ARE VG++ WITH SOME CREASING.
