Pressing was confirmed on discogs as this edition with the East on the spindle hole .  https://www.discogs.com/release/5225944-Anita-Baker-Rapture

Album was play tested through Focal Elagias and played overall in the EX range with the most noticeable issues being very very light spots of surface noise most noticeably during fade outs and between tracks. Numerically the play was a solid 89. Visually it is as close to EX- as could be however there are a number of minor surface marks and based on this the vinyl is scored as VG+

The sleeve is EX, actually I am scoring it as EX- numerically an 83 the score I use for the bottom of the range.  Straight on at arms length it looks essentially NM as it remains in the shrink however all of the issues are along the right side where the shrink is open.  The most noticeable issue is on the bottom right corner.  Looking at it from the front there is a 7mm bump however when looking at that same spot from behind and on the bottom there is a moderate wear spot with some lift.  The top right corner shows lesser wear.  Along the seam there is an 8mm x 3mm lift spot (it looks like it bumped into something) along with lesser wear along that opening seam.  The insert shows light wear. 

Album will be mailed USPS with the vinyl behind the jacket between cardboard and bubble wrap in a reinforced mailer.  If you have any questions please let me know and thanks for looking!
