THE VINYL -  EX :  The LP surfaces retain most of it's original gloss, Barely a mark. I can't even see "trail"marks by the spindle hole on the bright Orange and Black Tower labels which look NM if not Mint! This record was rarely played and plays EX/NM. Dead quiet.

THE COVER -   VG :  Partial ringwear to the front cover with moderate scuffing. there is a 7" split on the lower seam. There is some edge wear and small corner fray. There is a crease on the lower right corner. There is no paper tears, paper loss, stains or other writing. The cover looks much better then the description. (see photos)


 The LP and cover will be in separate, protective sleeves for professional mailing. Insurance will be included.
