Some marks and long hairlines are visible but none of these have any impact on the sound
VINYL Audio: EXCELLENT+ / EXCELLENT
Plays extremely well throughout and my play-check at loud volume (the cut is fairly quiet) found little to fault.
No scratches noted, just a little surface/ticks on the run-ins and some of the quieter sections i.e. the short, soft "Lament".
Nothing too major, sounds great
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT
A good and solid gatefold and fine example with some rub/ring to the outer surfaces/edges but all spine text is clear
