The Vinyl: In Excellent Plus condition. The vinyl retains a deep bright black glossy finish. Under direct light, there are barely any marks at all to what is essentially an unblemished surface.  Completely smooth and under light the vinyl surfaces still look fresh and project a mirror-like shine, no stylus hairlines, no marks or scratches on either side. The vinyl is clean, the record lays completely flat on the turntable, has no scuffs, no warping or dinks in the vinyl, very bright,  glossy and clean with no groove wear.

Very heavy robust sixties vinyl weighing nearly 170 grams.

Original Disneyland Labels are Excellent. Text is clear and bright, the perimeter area around the spindle location point has barely any signs of play.

MADE IN GT. BRITAIN across label perimeter.

The Audio: The audio grades as Excellent, there are no detractions such as pops, skips, jumps or sticks, and no interference which is obvious from the condition of the surfaces, and has been play tested to confirm. The surfaces project a full original stereo reproduction, and the vocals are crisp and clear. There is no background noise, and the run-in's preceding and succeeding the tracks/ stories are quiet with just a few light normal static type ticks between them.

The robustness of these early pressings always ensures that the sound quality doesn't deteriorate noticeably as long as the record has not been mistreated, and was designed to last, this LP is in exceptional condition.
