Description

The record has excellent playback with no surface noise I could hear other than a tick/pop here and there.  The LP itself has some light scuffs/hairlines but otherwise is very clean.
The jacket has corner/edge/ring/surface wear including a cut at the bottom, some writing, marks and bent corners.
