PLEASE REVIEW ALL PHOTOS AND READ ITEM DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY!

PRICED ACCORDINGLY! IF YOU ARE A STICKLER, THIS COPY IS NOT FOR YOU. 
There are many visual and some feelable surface marks that will cause A LOT of surface noise and pops & clicks. 
And the cover has wear that is typical with age for this cover including ring wear, a split seam on the top that was repaired with scotch tape and some peeling on the spine that is typical with a gatefold cover. There are the initials JR inside the gatefold. They are also at the top of the front cover and inside the letter "H" in Sabbath. They have faded with time, but you can still see them.  
If this is a concern for you, please don't buy it. 
Plays all the way through without skips, but you will hear surface noise and crackling.

PLAY TESTED! I RECENTLY PLAYED THIS LP AND IT STILLS SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD! ESPECIALLY CRANKED UP! But, you will hear surface noise and pops & clicks typical with a Good grading. 

The Vinyl is in GOOD condition, but has many surface marks will cause surface noise typical with a GOOD grading. Even with a GOOD grading there is going to be a certain amount of surface noise. Certainly, more noticible during the quiet parts. 

Green labels with spindle marks. 

The gatefold cover is in GOOD condition with typical wear from age, including, but not limited to corner dings, creases, crumples, fading, dings and ring wear. The top seam separated from the side opening toward the spine and was repaired with scotch tape. Inside the gatefold at the top there are the initials J.R. written in marker and are under the tape. The initials are also written twice on the front cover.There is some peeling on the spine that is typical with gatefold covers.
This cover typically doesn't age well, but this one is in "Good" shape.

The LP is now in a plain white inner sleeve. 

I obtained this LP in the early to mid 1970s. It was played many times back in the day. Not played in many years. 

I am thinning out my vinyl collection. This is the actual item you will receive. See the photos and judge for yourself.
