CODEINE - The White Birch LP.  SubPop Germany, SP118/299.  Very rare pressing on translucent vinyl.  These puppies do not come around very often!   I do not know how many clear vinyl copies were made but this one seems to be far rarer than the other Sub Pop Germany colour vinyl pressings from this era, which typically tended to be a pressing of 500 copies.  I would bet that way less than 500 of these were made.  It includes the extra 7" which is in overall VG condition.  
The LP itself I would describe as VG- condition.  I recall play testing this LP and there was audible background noise, crackles etc but no skips. Codeine are of course such a quiet and slow tempo band that these are heard more, with the added complication that clear vinyl is very hard to press on!   But overall it retained a listenable condition and I don't hesitate to grade it as such.  The outer sleeve shows sign of wear and has a price sticker on the reverse.  Again I would grade this as VG- condition.  

Vinyl VG- Sleeve VG- 7" single sleeve and vinyl appear as VG.  Cat No GR 0171 (Glitterhouse) bearing the Sub Pop logo on the label and sleeve
