Condition:
Cover is in beautiful shape, with no significant signs of wear.  Front and back are clean, no ring wear, no age discoloration to the white background, which is rare.  Back is also super bright white, with a couple light marks in the middle.  Seams are nice, intact, no splits.  Corners are very good.  Factory punch hole in lower left corner.  One of the nicest examples of this cover you'll find.  Grade: Excellent (EX).

Vinyl is also very nice, still retains its original glossy shine.  No significant scratches or scuffs, just a couple small, superficial hairlines, which cannot be felt, nor do they affect the quality of playback.  Labels are clean, no marks around spindle holes, indicating little previous play.

Play-Tested:
When played in the recommended Mono Mode, the sound quality is excellent, clean and clear.  Full-bodied mono fidelity the way this record was meant to be heard.  A very clean copy, not audiophile perfect, but none of these originals are.  This copy is one of the nicest I've come across.  Grade: Excellent (EX).
