Visually the vinyl retains excellent sheen. Inspected under bright light there are lots of visible marks, both hairlines and some more significant marks and blemishes. Playback is graded a strong VERY GOOD PLUS - it actually plays really well, clear and bright and really a great listen with only some minor surface noise audible in the quieter parts and between tracks etc.
The AQUA BLUE INTERNATIONAL ARTIST record labels are graded VERY GOOD PLUS - with some visible spindle wear and marks.
The ORIGINAL thick card FAMOUS ICONIC UNLAMINATED PICTURE sleeve printed by TANNER 'N' TEXAS INC  is VERY GOOD PLUS - it has seen some wear but overall is still in pretty good shape considering its 52 year old age ! There are some surface rubs to the front in places and some corner wear and the front bottom right corner has been rounded at some point. The back has some discolouration and slight visible ring wear and a couple of marks but the spine still remains strong and uncrushed.
This is a RARE and GREAT ORIGINAL USA STEREO 1st PRESS copy of this rare 13th FLOOR ELEVATORS classic PSYCH Lp from 1968 - get it while you can !!



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.
