Nice example of the first pressing of this classic prog rock spectacular! 
Sleeve is overall very good although it's very well worn and some of the print has come away on the front cover (top left), the spine and on the edges. Zoom into the photos. I can take more photos on request.
Vinyl, again in very good condition although there is a fair bit of surface marking and two or three major marks. However, I have play tested and although there is some pops and crackles (beginning of track 1, side A), the record does play through and is extremely listenable.
No plastic inner sleeve. I will supply a new, paper one.
Gatefold cover, printed and made by E. J Day, London. Pink i labels. Matrix / Runout (Side A runout stamped): ILPS 9111 A//3  Matrix / Runout (Side B runout stamped): ILPS 9111 B//3

Just to clarify, following a question, the popping and crackling on track 1 is the most noticeable. There is some crackling in other places, but on the whole, the record plays very well despite some of the surface marks.
