Grading:
Sleeve: Fair-

Has Various Wear, A Few Rips And Tears And A Bit Of A Mangled Queen Victoria Insert (See Pics For Better Detail Than I Can Describe Here).Have Just Realised The Queen Victoria Insert Pulls Right Out, The Bottom Half You Cannot See In Pics Has No Major Issues Apart From An Old Fold 20% Of The Way Down.

Vinyl: Good

Does Have Some Surface Marks On Both A & B Sides. B Side Has Surface Marks Only, No Proper Scratches And Plays Fine With Nothing More Than Background Pop & Crackle Here And There, Most Noticeable In Between Tracks. A Side Does Have Surface Marks But Also A Couple Of Small Scratches. The First Is At The End Of Track B3 And Can Be Heard As A Pop When Needle Passes It. The Other One Spans B3, B4 & B5 And Is A Bit Lighter, It Can Be Heard But Mostly In Between Tracks. Once Tracks Starts You Cant Really Here It. Plenty Of Light Spindle Marks On Labels Which Don't Really Show Up On Photos. Has Been Machine Cleaned Before Grading.
I Would Say It Looks Around A 'Good/Good+' And Plays Just Slightly Better.
