Cover
MINT
Incredible to think that this sleeve is 46 years old - it looks as if it left the shops yesterday. It is 100% 'as new' throughout with no creasing, discolouration, marks or wear to any part. You will not find a better original example.
**PLEASE NOTE: This item is being sent from AUSTRIA. 1st class international postage to UK addresses will be 6.00 GBP**
- Strict & grading under strong daylight & directly beneath a halogen desk lamp to UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' standards.
- I carefully play every record I sell on an EMT 950 turntable at volume and list all visual and audible faults.
- All the photos in this listing have been taken by myself and are of the actual items for sale.
- All records are professionally & securely in custom-made record mailing boxes with the disc removed from the cover.
