Second UK press in quality E J Day Ltd Gatefold Jacket
Vinyl stunning black pretty much faultless. Not even any spindle marks. You'll struggle find a nicer copy.
There are a couple of what look like finger prints but I would rather let the new owner clean those with their preferred cleaning solution. I will stop short of calling this vinyl MINT only because there is bound to be someone who will get their microscope out and find the tiniest flaw but honestly this is so close to perfect. Apart from a couple of fingerprints it looks like it's just come out of the factory.

The jacket has the odd minor crease, the most moderate amount of laminate lift measuring about 1.5" on the top front edge, a small sticker removal mark on album title on front and just some general minor age-related signs of storage and handling.
The inner gatefold is flawless. 
Green Harvest labels with one EMI box reveal that this is the second press which dates from circa 1973

Cat no SHVL 765
Matrices: A-2G // B-3
The front pocket of the gatefold is glued shut with no inner flap. Part of the glue seal here has come unstuck but I will leave that to new owner to decide if they want to repair it or not.

Shipped in a proper vinyl mailer with the record separated from the outer jacket to avoid seamsplits in transit.
