ATTENTION ! CONDITION Please read before bidding, some important notes.:- Whilst the record plays near perfect with the occasional light crackle, there is a faintly visible surface/hair line mark that runs across from halfway on Side 1 to just short of the end of the last track. You should be able to see this on the photo close ups. BUT I STRESS, IT DOES NOT AFFECT THE PLAY WHATSOEVER.

Also there seems to be a heat blemish right on the outer edge of the record on Side 2. But this again does not affect play (even from the start position when turning your record player on (see photos again).

SLEEVE CONDITION (more important notes) ! The sleeve has what looks to be a cig burn mark on the front near top edge (this could explain the heat blemish on the record itself - on the very edge). There is also some pen writing on the back cover. SEE ALL PHOTOS IF IN DOUBT !! But you might be able to find a replacement flip back sleeve instead.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS - PLEASE ASK !

NO NONSENSE MONEY BACK GUARANTEE IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY WITH RECORD.
