Visually both the vinyls looks retain excellent deep lustrous shiny sheen - and inspected under bright there are few visible marks, mainly hairlines and paper scuffs but really very little to affect sound quality. Playback is EXCELLENT PLUS - both vinyls play really well - full, clear and vibrant - really an outstanding copy and a very enjoyable listen of this complex and phenomenal piece of musical art. 
The TAN REPRISE 'RIVERBOAT'  record labels all remain EXCELLENT - very little visible spindle wear.
The ORIGINAL quality card WIDE SPINE GATEFOLD PICTURE sleeve printed by GOTHIC PRINT FINISHERS LTD is in really great condition as well with overall very little wear - some minor fading to front  right edge and two label removal marks front top right but otherwise pretty much perfect with strong uncrushed spine that remains 100% legible - graded a strong EXCELLENT.




SHIPPING All Lps are packed carefully and shipped using purpose made new corrugated card RECORD MAILERS ( not thin card, single sleeve 'envelopes' etc ) and we take care to make sure that the vinyl and inner sleeve are removed from the outer sleeve to prevent seam splits during transit.
