Brief description of item

Superb example of this scarce album. Nice cover, great labels & amazing vinyl. This is the rarer version on WWA with original cover artwork by Drew Struzan, you wouldn't get away with a cover like this today. Opens up to reveal the original line up, in perfect condition. Outside cover has very minimal wear on the back top, and a very slight part (almost invisible) hardly worth worrying about but worth mentioning.

Great labels on each side, with no wear or pre-owned names written. All text and print 100% legible. No heavy spindle wear or negative issues to list.

The original inner is here also, the vinyl itself is stunning & without ANY problems or negatives, if played it was a couple of times at most. has been checked & photographed under extremely high white light....Unforgiving in nature, there are not even any hairlined marks here.... 

Vinyl is not warped & sits 100% flat. Plays as EXCELLENT+ or better. Record is stored within a poly lined inner sleeve & not within the textured inner, this will be included within transit to avoid any splitting.

Packed extremely well & posted lighting fast....Same day if possible following payment. Please see the close up view of this near archived copy, its a real gem! I use custom made mailers & these will never let you down...Please see method used for packing in the 'payment & shipping' box below,

All vinyl comes from a smoke, damp and pet free environment

Mint (M) The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condiition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent (EX) The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

Very Good (VG) The record has obviously been played many times, but displayes no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable

Good (G) The record has been played so much that the sound quality has notceably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc

Fair (F) The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

Poor (P) The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing Bad (B) The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler

CD's and CASSETTES As a general rule CD's and Cassettes either play perfectly - inwhich case they are in Mint condition - or they don't, in which case their value is minimal. Cassette tape is liable to deteriorate with age, even if it remains unplayed, so care should be taken when buying old tapes. CD's are difficult to grade visually; they can look perfect but actually be faulty, while in other cases they may appear damaged but still play perfectly. Cassette and CD inlays and booklets should be graded in the same way as record covers and sleeves. In general, the plastic containers for cassettes and CDs can easily be replaces if they are broken or scratched, but card covers and digipaks are subject to the same wear as record sleeves
