THE GATEFOLD ALBUM SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH CRISP PRESSED CORNERS AND OPENING EDGES. FREE FROM ANY WRITING THE ONLY MINOR CRITICISM I COULD MAKE IS SOME SLIGHT AGE BROWNING TO THE WHITE AREAS ON THE SLEEVE FRONT OTHER THAN THAT THE SLEEVE IS BRIGHT AND VIVID AND LIES FLAT WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION .
THE PATENTS WHITE INNER IS ALSO IN SIMILAR SUPERB CONDITION AGAIN FREE FROM ANY WRITING OR STAINING AND ANY SERIOUS CREASING
THE VINYL DISC IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH A DEEP GLOSSY SHEEN TO THE SURFACES WITH BEAUTIFUL UNMARKED LABELS WITH JUST ABSOLUTE MINIMAL SPINDLE MARKS CONFINED TO THE DISC CENTRE AND ONLY REALLY VISIBLE UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT   RECORD HAS NOT SEEN MANY PLAYS OVER THE LAST 43 YEARS  AND IS BECOMING HARD TO FIND BECAUSE OF ITS LIMITED SALES WHEN RELEASED.
