Original mono Rolling Stones LP "Their Satanic Majesties Request" on the mono blue Decca label. This is the rare 3D sleeve in NEAR MINT CONDITION!! It's in MONO and has the correct red and white inner, and the gatefold sleeve is beautiful!!!



Vinyl Visual: EX-
This LP still retains a lot of shine. Although it does have some marks all over, it still looks nice and clean.

Vinyl Playing Surface: EX(+)
I'll mention first that this record does have two skips on Side One, track five. Other than that, this record sounds amazingly clean and clear. Throughout the rest of the album there is only the slightest of background noise and no distortion. The other light marks on the vinyl do not affect play. I grade the vinyl as EX(+) as without the two skips this would be an Excellent Plus record. A really great example.

Vinyl Labels: EX++
The light blue 1967 mono labels are in wonderful condition - no spindle wear and only the most INCREDIBLY light spindle scratching in two or three places under a strong light. I could easily say the labels were NEAR MINT to anyone but the most critical collector.

Sleeve: NEAR MINT-
The iconic "Satanic Majesties Request" sleeve is in incredible condition!! There is only very light wear along the edges. The opening mouth is nice and sharp. The 3D cover is perfect. The rear is just as beautifully clean. A lot of the insides of the gatefold sleeve have pen marks or wear, but the inside of this gatefold sleeve is IMMACULATE. The inside of the spine has no wear whatsoever, and the outside of the spine on the cover is also perfectly sharp and retains it's shape stunningly - no flattening at all.
I feel I must stress how beautiful this sleeve is - the only marks are very light wear on the corners which is honestly hardly noticeable.

Inner Sleeve: EX
The inner sleeve is the original red and white psychedelic inner. It has NO SPLITS, but does have a small less than 1cm tear right at the top. This is not obvious though. The edges are all straight and sharp. It still has the bright strong colours and only displays slight creasing on one top edge. When you look inside at the very top, you can see a light brown starting to appear. But other than that, a lovely example of this inner sleeve which is hard to find in such good condition.
