Condition Report
- Vinyl Discs: Very Good Plus (VG+). Both discs retain a bright, glossy mirror sheen across all playing surfaces. The classic tan-colored labels are crisp and bright with clear text and minimal spindle wear. Under sharp direct inspection, minor superficial paper scuffs and faint hairlines are visible, but the vinyl remains thoroughly smooth and well-preserved.
- Gatefold Sleeve: Very Good (VG). The un-laminated cardboard gatefold cover is structurally sound with an unbroken spine and firm seams. Shows a degree of uniform vintage surface rubbing, typical soft corner wear, and light ring outline shadowing on the orange background panels. The interior gatefold contains beautifully preserved text and graphics with zero handwriting or tearing.
- Inner Sleeves: Very Good (VG). Accompanied by two classic vintage white paper inner sleeves. Both display standard age-related browning, soft handling folds, and perimeter creasing, remaining fully functional with no bottom seam blowouts.
