Note:
Most copies of this record sold as "original" are not, in fact, original.  True First Pressings like this one have the misprint on the back cover where the songs "Accept Yourself" and "Girl Afraid" do NOT have the black dot separating the song titles.

Condition:
The cover is in very nice condition with no significant signs of wear and age.  Front and back are clean, no ring wear, still nice and glossy.  Seams are strong, no splits.  Corners are sharp, not bumped or rubbed.  Overall, a very clean, well-preserved cover, nice gloss.  Hard to upgrade.  Grade: Near Mint (NM).

The vinyl is also in very nice condition, still retains its original glossy shine.  No apparent scratches or scuffs, just a couple very faint, superficial hairlines on Side One, probably from taking the vinyl out of cardboard inner sleeve a few times.  Labels are clean, unmarked.  Looks like it's maybe been played a couple times, but handled very carefully.  Very clean.  Grade: Excellent (EX).

100% satisfaction guaranteed, no risk buying.  My 100% positive feedback on rare albums allow you to bid with confidence.  Returns accepted, no questions asked.
