Visual: EXCELLENT
Both surfaces of this fine copy are clean, glossy and unmarked in strong daylight with no scuff, marks or scratches anywhere. Close inspection directly under a halogen desk lamp reveals just an occaisional faint stylus hairline and some wispy inner-sleeve removal paper hairlines but no other significant signs or wear. Both sides are 100% flat on the turntable with no signs or dishing or warping.
Play: VERY GOOD +
This copy has received a moderate amount of play but there is no major deterioration to the sound quality or any major faults. Some light background is present on 'Michelle' & 'In My Life' and there are a few light background ticks on 'Wait'. Apart from these minor faults, all tracks play without any further wear. An occaisional light tick is audible between some track but there are no heavy clicks, jump, repeats or othersuch faults.

Apart form a small rub to the lower right corner, all are clean, square and unbumped. The rear panel is white with just a few light marks from storage but no writing or missing paper.
