Condition: The cover is in beautiful condition with no apparent signs of age or wear.  Front is beautiful, clean, bone white, no ring wear, no age discoloration.  Back is clean and white, no ring wear or rubbing loss, or writing.  Seams are strong, no splits or cracks or flaking.  Corners are sharp, not bumped.  Looks like it was just taken out of original factory shrink wrap.  Very hard to upgrade.  Grade: Near Mint (NM).
The vinyl is also in beautiful condition, still retains its original high gloss shine and luster.  No apparent scratches or scuffs, just some faint signs of having been taken out of paper inner sleeve a few times.  Labels are clean, no marks around spindle holes, indicating little, if any, previous play.
Play-Tested: When played in the recommended Mono Mode, this record sounds beautiful--full-bodied mono fidelity.  No distortion, no skips, no surface noise to speak of outside the pressing itself.  I've owned this record for 30 years, play tested it, and archived it un-played.  Looks like it's been played maybe once or twice at most.  Hard to find a nicer copy.  Grade: Near Mint (NM).
This is the nicest original copy that I've seen in 35 years of collecting.  You will not be disappointed with this beautiful copy.
