THE SLEEVE
THE FRONT LAMINATED, McNEIL SLEEVE, WITH TWO REAR FLIP-BACKS, IS IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION. THERE IS SOME MINOR DISCOLOURATION AND SOME SLIGHT RING WEAR.
THE INNER SLEEVE
THE ORIGINAL RED & WHITE, “STEREOPHONIC RECORD” POLY-LINED, INNER SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, WITH SOME LIGHT TANNING AND A CREASE TO ONE CORNER.
THE VINYL
VISUALLY THE VINYL IS IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION AND I CAN ONLY SEE A FEW TINY WISPY LIGHT SCUFF MARKS, WHICH DO NOT OVERLY AFFECT THE SOUND QUALITY ON THIS EXTRAORDINARY RECORDING. I HAVE FULLY PLAYED THE RECORD AND CAN CONFIRM THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS GENERALLY SUPERB THROUGHOUT, AND I ONLY DETECTED SOME VERY MINOR & OCCASIONAL BACKGROUND INTERFERENCE ALONG WITH ONE OR TWO LIGHT CLICKS.
THE LABELS
THE RED & SILVER, GROOVED RCA LABELS, WITH THE LARGE ROUND, SILVER “RCA LIVING STEREO” LOGOS, ARE BOTH IN NEAR MINT CONDITION WITH ONLY ONE OR TWO TINY LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS OVER THE TWO LABELS.
