This is indeed a rarity - do not pass this one up! the VERY FIRST Ode PROMO pressing, unique by the Monarch Records stamped logo in matrix runout AND the rare TEXTURED cover This copy is from my personal collection and has been well taken care of.
VINYL Visually, this thicker vinyl shows minor lines/nicks/"needle stress", NOT deep scratches (see image). Play-graded, Side A is very quiet, but Side B has static/clicks (but NO skipping) only on tracks 1-3 (the rest is quiet).
COVER The textured cover does have a hole punch and very light edge/spine "rubbing wear" from shelving
[In the Goldmine album-grading world, I would say that this is really closer to EX than VG+]
~ Due to it's rarity, I am listing this with a higher than usual staring bid ~ ~ you will not be disappointed ~
