Most of these 60s Double LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and BOTH records have NO scratches, NO hairlines, NO scufflines, only an absolutely TINY surface mark (on 1 side ONLY!), and only a VERY few of the VERY lightest paper scuffs only visible under EXTREME light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  BOTH RECORDS STILL RETAIN THEIR ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOK AWESOME!!!!  It is great to find that both records play as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, only 3 or 4 ULTRA light barely audible clicks on 1 side ONLY (from the TINY surface mark mentioned above), NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!

I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The records also come in their ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Matching' inner sleeves which are in SUPERB condition!!!!  The 1st Press 'E.J.Day' Gatefold 'Felt' MONO Cover is in SUPERB condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), barely ANY creases AT ALL (cover is AMAZINGLY flat looking!), barely ANY record impressions AT ALL, and NO writing!!!!  AMAZINGLY, there is absolutely NO indentations AT ALL - apart from an absolutely TINY one at the VERY bottom of the cover front ONLY (though this is next to the bottom edge so it is completely unoticeable!) - and this is almost UNHEARD OF on this cover, as usually the felt suffers VERY badly (NOT this one!) with heavy press marks & indentation lines (NOT this one!)!!!!  The colour is also PERFECT with NO grubbyness - just vivid PERFECT red and STUNNING unrubbed GOLD text!!!!  The opening edges are beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the unlaminated inside of the cover is in SUPERB condition with NO wear, NO rubbing, NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade FULL Excellent if not Excellent+ - and is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to find in this SUPERB condition!!!!  THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
