Condition Report:
- Vinyl Record: Excellent (EX). The black vinyl disc retains an outstanding, deep original factory gloss across both playing surfaces. Under strong inspection light, there are only a few negligible, incredibly light cosmetic surface hair wisps that do not cause audible crackle or skip. Injection molded silver center labels are exceptionally sharp, crisp, and clear of any spindle marks.
- Picture Sleeve: Very Good Plus (VG+). The authentic Jeremy Luff paper picture sleeve is beautifully preserved with clean grid lines and vibrant red and blue artwork colors. Shows just a touch of standard vintage thumb feathering at the opening edge and minor storage ring outline wear. Free from splits, moisture stains, or ink signatures.
- Center Label & Seal: Unsealed as originally issued in the United Kingdom. The paper components are strong, crisp, and completely free of any tearing or yellowing.
