According to Discogs this is likely the first US pressing. It is the version that includes the lyric sheet and has the Warner Brothers logos with out the word "records"

Record: Good. Several scuffs and hairline scratches. Background noise can be heard through the music throughout the record. Does not skip. 

Cover / Outer Sleeve: Badly worn. Seam split on one corner. 

Inner Sleeve: Poor. Badly discolored and split on all 3 sides.

Also includes lyric sheet.  

I place each record in a new poly inner sleeve to protect it from surface wear and dust during shipping.

If you have any special requests for packaging let me know and I will try to accommodate.
