COVER

This is the original Robert Stace laminated front,matt rear cover.Unlike most of these examples, this one has survived very well for such a popular album cover like this.The front panel is very clean and bright with no laminate peeling and just a couple of tiny bubbles and stress creases to fault ! The spine is also in nice shape with fully readable text present.The corners are still square in shape and sharp with just a hint of wear.The vulnerable white back is still very clean and bright with no writing, stickers or nasty marks and just some light signs of age with a couple of small niks on the edge.It's become very difficult to find an original as clean as this as most have alot of writing and grubby handling marks ! Overall a very clean example which would grace any collection ( see-pics ) EXCELLENT MINUS CONDITION !

VINYL

Both sides have a lovely glossy shine and allthough both sides have afew surface marks, there is only 2 tiny feelable scratches ( approx 5mm ) which affect the audio quality, resulting in some clicks for a couple of revolutions, otherwise both sides play through remarkably well with just a little crackle from time to time, again this is not over powering and doesn't spoil the overall quality.It has seen a lot of use but it's still a very nice example and certainley better than the average condition offered.Overall a nice example that allthough has seen a bit of use, still looks and sounds presentable and not a beat up / trashed example by far ( see-pics ) Visualy and Audibly VERY GOOD PLUS CONDITION

LABELS Earliest issued labels with the inverted matrix numbers , deep grooved matt varaints.Both in very clean shape and not spoilt with writing , stickers or stains and just a couple of tiny faint spindle traces around each centre hole, which are difficult to avoid on this type of label, there are only a couple which are very faint and hard to see,lovely clean set ( see-pics ) EXCELLENT CONDITION ! INNER Housed in the original plain white, poly-lined inner sleeve .Again very clean and free from writing , marks etc, with just a little toning from age and some storage creases.
