Vinyl is clean and has retained its shine. I've played it all the way through (on a pro-ject deck) and it plays without sticking or jumping. There are some light surface marks and a few more noticeable marks as follows... On side 2 there is a quite deep approx 1 cm scratch (see last photo) that causes audible clicks for a minute or so.  On side 2 there are a few lighter scratches that generate some light, but not too obtrusive clicks in parts. Other than that it's fine with some low level background noise in places.

Clean labels, no writing.

The gatefold, non-laminated sleeve has some wear to edges but no rips or splits and no writing. However there are some tiny marks where a sharp object has been jabbed into the front cover. If you zoom in these can be seen mostly around the hooded figure and just below and to the right of the "h" in the title. They don't penetrate all the way through although a couple can be felt on the inside of the flap. Please see photos

The original swirl inner sleeve has a split in the centre of each side.

Record will be packaged with stiffeners.

If buyer is not satisfied for any reason I will refund on safe return of item.

Please see my other listings for more LPs.

Gradings, where used, refer to the UK Record Collector Magazine standard, I would only use "mint" for genuinely unplayed records. Visual grading is done under bright light, not normal daylight. 

I am always happy to combine postage for multiple purchases.
Important note: please be aware that I post using recorded mail and for non-UK buyers the Royal Mail and eBay charges result in high postage fees. However I do not profit from postage and packing, please do not bid if you consider the p&p unfair.
