Incredibly rare find here. Mankunku Quartet's 1968 LP Yakhal' Inkomo, original pressing on the World Record Co. label (ORL 6022). The cover is pretty rough as seen in the photos, but the album is UNPLAYED. 
The sleeve is extremely thin. There was a film on it to make it look glossy, but a good portion of that has been removed. Surprisingly, the artwork itself is unaffected and very clear. Several creases and bumps here and there as seen in the photos. While doing research on this album, it appears that most other copies have sleeves in similar condition. 
What sets this apart from other copies is that the record is MINT. Never seen a needle. In fact it hasn't even been completely removed from the plastic sleeve. I kind of had a peek to confirm the condition. Album is flat, no warping at all. 
Feel free to ask me any questions, but everything I know about this record is in the listing. 
Note to International bidders: Due to the value of this LP, I will declare the winning bid amount on the customs form. This is to protect both the Buyer and Seller should there be any issues (parcel lost, damaged, etc.) 
Thanks for looking.
