A truly superb condition copy : both sides of the vinyl gleam with the original jet black lacquered sheen and even with close scrutiny under a bright light it is difficult to identify any faults at all...I get very nervous about grading any non-sealed record as "near mint" but this is very close...certainly an excellent plus plus (EX++) at least...clearly this record has been played only a few times. Each label is in great shape - again, difficult to fault...unmarked except for just a couple of small and extremely faint spindle trails on each label, again not really discernible in normal daylight. The non-laminated sleeve outer sleeve remains in excellent (EX) condition - the sleeve is lightly textured and extremely fragile so what a joy to find this sleeve in such impressive condition : all edges remain firm with no scuffing, no corner rubbing, no creasing, no edge fraying, the spine remains in a totally intact and rigid state, barely any ring wear and all artwork and text remains completely unblemished. The only blemishes to note are two small circular residue marks on the reverse side towards the top edge, presumably leftovers from old price stickers, and a 6mm horizontal tear on the front side opening edge (see photo) accompanied by some very minor edge fraying. On the reverse side are the signatures of four of the original band members which serve as the ultimate authentication of this folk gem. The audio quality is simply stunning with no skips, jumps, repeats, clicks, interference or background crackle - crystal clear vocals and musicianship with great tone and clarity throughout. And the music itself is nothing short of a delight. Comes with plain white, die-cut poly-lined "PLASTIC BAGS CAN BE GANGEROUS" inner sleeve.Clearly this is a record that has been sparingly played and looked after with the loving care and attention that it deserves, and long may that continue... POSTAGE COSTS :
For the UK £8 using Royal Mail Special Delivery,
for continental Europe £14 using Royal Mail 1st class tracked and signed for,
and for the rest of the world £20 using Royal Mail 1st class tracked and signed for.
I do provide posting and packaging discounts for multiple purchases. I make no profit from postage.
Note that I always insert the vinyl into a new plain white poly-lined inner sleeve in order to protect the original during postage, and separate this from the outer sleeve to prevent seam splits. I use thick cardboard stiffeners and take great care in my packaging to ensure as far as possible that these precious records reach their destination in exactly the same condition as when they leave me.
If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige.

A bit about myself : I have been collecting UK vinyl for over 53 years from a variety of sources : my own collection, friends and family, car boot and garage sales, door-to-door leaflets, and even through placing an advert in my wife's shop window! My ebay feedback speaks for itself so rest assured that you are buying from a trusted seller and in the very unlikely event that you are unhappy with your purchase just e-mail me and I will sort out the problem. I offer a "no questions asked" refund policy. If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige. There is NO RESERVE on this item. Richard
