There are some very light surface marks or scuffs that I can see on Side 2. Side 1, to the best of my non-professional ability, appears to be in mint condition Disc has not been tested (no means to do so) but was part of a set by a wealthy music collector Sleeve has 7/8" edge split upper right front (see pic) and light wear to both spine and a few edges (see pic); also, if you look closely at first pic, you can see a series of markss that start at the top of the top of the front side of sleeve and curve toward center about 5" down
