Vinyl:
158g! QUALITY Heavyweight vinyl.
VG.
 Lovely shine and weight.
There are just some light marks to the vinyl.
 Certainly NO skipping or jumping...After giving her a gentle professional clean on my VC-S MkII Vacuum Record Cleaner, I played her all the way through and was very, VERY happy with the sound reproduction.
I noticed the occasional light pop in the background, but these were few and far between, with nothing to affect my enjoyment of this quality weighty slab of vinyl.
GORGEOUSLY RICH AND DEEP SOUND REPRODUCTION
She is a very nice copy indeed.
FLAT AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN


Labels:
VG+.
There are only traces of light spindle marks, with these being mainly visible when angled towards the light, with just light wear to the central holes.
Proud and raised "KT" tax code to side 2.
"The Gramophone Co..." rim text as well as "Sold In U.K." text.
NO WRITING

Cover:
VG+.
Patents Pending. Shiny front cover, with gloriously WHITE card backing too!...There are quite a few lines of spidering to the front laminate near the opening, with some fingers of spidering emanating from the seams.
 The corners carry just light rubbing and some slight knocking but remain strong.
SUPERBLY strong and legible spine.

NO WRITING ANYWHERE.

EXCELLENT, SOLID Garrod & Lofthouse flipbacks.
Remains a nice example.


Inner:
G.
ORIGINAL 'USE EMITEX' inner with the tracing paper lining.
It is the earliest you could hope for as it carries the "PATENTS APPLIED FOR" statement to the bottom left corner on one side.
There's havrdly any discolouration to this inner but does carry splits to each side, as well as a tear to one side at the corner.
It has "Nov '63" written to one side in red pen.
ALL ORIGINAL

ALL IN ALL THIS IS A LOVELY SOUNDING ALBUM IN A WONDERFUL ALL ROUND ORIGINAL PACKAGE WHICH IS ALL COMPLETE
