Visually the records shows quite a few marks, scuffs and scratches, especially on the outer tracks. Luckily it still plays through without skipping on my equipment but there is apparent crackle upon playback, along with ticks, pops and other audible demerits that you can find from this kind of condition. Overall the sound quality is still nice above the crackle so I'll give it a grading of Good +. This record is definitely more of a collection filler but it'll still definitely scratch that Beatles itch. 

The original Garrod & Lofthouse flipback cover is overall in a Very Good condition. It has the red stripes on the back and no printer credits which is indicative of a true first pressing cover and it's overall nice. It has signs of wear and tear, the front panel has discoloured a little bit with age which happens to every one of these first press covers, no matter their condition. There is a circular stain on the front panel and some slight fading in places on the back panel but it's generally clean and holding up well. There is minimal foxing to the openings and they overall feel good.

Comes with it's original black inner sleeve which is holding up nicely. Luckily no seam splits but it does have some slight creasing in places.
