RECORD:  EXCELLENT.  Record has a few nothing marks and test plays excellent or better. Super quiet sound even between tracks. Difficult to see a "trail" mark by spindle holes. Listen to this record and take a trip right back to 1967.
COVER:  EXCELLENT! The cover is sweet. Super clean. Back cover has some indents. Looks like a Rolling Stone "zipper cover" record was stored behind it. Not really a distraction. NO WRITING, SPLITS, HOLES, SAW MARKS, STAINS ETC.
INNER SLEEVE: EXCELLENT! The record hardly peeks through the inner sleeve.
This is one of the best sounding and looking copies of this record I have ever had. This is from my personal collection.  An investment. INSURANCE IS REQUIRED ON RECORDS OVER $150.00. AN ADDITIONAL CHARGE OF $8.00 WILL BE ADDED TO COST.
