Condition
VINYL: G+. Looks superbly clean on visual inspection. No sign of any marks, scuffs or hairlines. Played just pre-listing and sound clarity is good throughout. Run-ins have surface noise and mild crackling. Static and surface noise throughout, more noticeable in quieter cues and fade-ins/fadeouts, but vocals are decent. Plays with no skipping, jumping or sticking. An enjoyable listen to this classic film musical.
OUTER SLEEVE/COVER: VG. Colours unfaded on laminated gatefold. Slight yellowing to edges and a few creases. Mild scuffs to edges and corners. Spine dented but readable. Small split at bottom. Back cover has minor crinkling and creases but nothing major. Inner matt gate clean and unmarked with just faint yellowing round edge. A great sleeve overall despite minor defects.
INNER SLEEVE: VG. Original poly-lined white sleeve with centre hole. Buckling and folds but clean and intact. A decent example.
