Nobody really buys picture discs primarily for their acoustic properties , but most want them to sound good overall on the rare occasions they do get spun ! This is just such a copy ! I bought this in beautiful rarely played condition about 15 years ago , never played it , at all until just now to make sure the vinyl was properly graded. This is PLAY GRADING of a picture disc , which is not really a fair judgement of condition , because most picture discs , even the better ones , like this , have a small degree of surface noise from the time they were pressed . Todays versions are better in that category , but much , much worse overall , because they are all remote digital clones of the original piece . Not here , this is actually really nice analogue sound with a slight backdrop of occasional picture disc type surface noise ( not so much play surface noise) . The sound is way more than adequate for the times you bring it out to play and spin on the turntable.  Better even than my Picture disc of Diamond Dogs which is probably my favorite "play" picture disc. I play that for the differences in tonal quality unique to the picture disc . This actually sounds like Dark Side Of The Moon , with a little picture disc type surface noise added here or there.( NOT PLAY SURFACE NOISE so MUCH) . I never played it from the time I bought it in real nice used shape.     The cover presents well overall, but has well camouflaged but significant sticker damage , as well as a tear in the disc opening at the bottom center of the front cover (also very hard to see casually , but a significant cover defect. This is taking about $25 or $30 off the asking price unfortunately. But also making  it just that much more affordable ! Vinyl : PLAY GRADED VG+ very shiny and very few defects are visible at all (See Close Up Photos) Cover : with original clear sleeve VG- because of sticker damage & tear in opening (See photo 3,4 & 5 )  otherwise cover quite nice
