This is the original 1967 British Parlophone Mono Record pressing (PMC 7027, XEX 637/8), which includes the original cut out card insert and the red half-tone print inner sleeve.  

This record has not been stuck in an attic collecting dust, but rather part of a much loved vinyl collection. I decided it was the right time to sell the record in order to fund new purchases and for someone else to enjoy its possession.

Using the UK Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide I believe this vinyl to be in a good condition. It has been played throughout;  I have had to grade it only as good due to a deep scratch on the vinyl which causes a skip on the track 'Lovely Rita'. However, apart from this track, there is only slight crackle in between tracks during the rest of the album and no other serious defections.

In terms of the appearance of the discs, apart from the scratch previously described, there are only surface marks as would be expected of its age,

The cover has bad wear along the fold but otherwise only slight wear in the corners with the inside cover showing no issues. The inner sleeve has a slight rip at the top and has partly opened at the bottom. 

If you can forgive a few seconds skip during one track, then this is a good example of a 58 year old classic, which possesses rare inner sleeves.
