THE THICK CARDBOARD GATEFOLD COVER HAS SOME RING WEAR/RUBBING, BOTH SEAMS AND THE CORNERS SHOW SOME WEAR, THERE IS A SPINE SPLIT WHICH IS MORE VISIBLE FROM THE INSIDE (THE TEXT IS STILL FULLY READABLE) AND IT HAS A SMALL CUT OUT HOLE - NO PARTS OF THE BANANA ARE MISSING BUT THERE IS HAS A LITTLE TEAR, IT GETS A VERY GOOD-  GRADE - NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION!!! THE VINYL IS VERY GOOD++ BECAUSE OF A FEW LONGER HAIRLINES AND SOME FAINT SLEEVE REMOVAL MARKS ONLY - BOTH SIDES PLAY WITH LIGHT BACKGROUND NOISE AND THERE ARE A FEW CLICKS BUT THE OVERALL SOUND IS BEAUTIFUL, LOUD & CLEAR!!!
