Condition:
   Jacket:  VG+  The cover for this record is in super clean shape.  It has hardly aged at all.  However, there is a drill hole

                           near the top left corner near the catalogue number (see photo)  and  a name written in an obscure place

                           on the backside near the liner notes that looks as if it belongs there. There is some edge wear and the

                           corners are very slightly bumped, nothing unexpected for a jacket this old. It has bright vivid colors.

                           The only exceptions are the very minor flaws mentioned.

      Vinyl:  VG+  The vinyl looks great for being forty-eight years old.  A very strong very good plus grade. There are slight

                           flaws under extreme bright light.  There are some initials on the side one label (see photo) that pulls the

                           grade down a half a notch. The sound quality is excellent!! 

 Combine Shipping and Save:
        $4.00 for 1st  album,  $1.00 per additional album.
