Gatefold sleevehas some shelf wear along the edges and a hint of ring wear. Thereis a smudge on the front cover across the bb of Black Sabbath and acouple other smaller smudges. Still VG if not VG+. The vinyl hasbeen played only a few times at most, is still very glossy, and withthe exception of some surface noise sounds good throughout. Onlyminor paper scuffs and one scratch across Iron Man which ticks during spinning for the first half of the song. VG+
