Condition


The record itself appears to be in excellent condition with no obvious marks or scratches. Appears to have been little played. There are no signs of warping. There are no signs of warping. Unfortunately we don't currently have the facility to play records so we can't attest to playback quality The outer sleeve has very faint creasing and edge wear. (see photos)
The inner sleeve has some faint (finger?) marks and there is a 2.5 inch tear in the bottom. (see photos) Based on the guidelines of the Record Collectors Guild, I would say this record is 'Very good+'  (www.recordcollectorsguild.org)
