The labels.
The original labels are graded as EX condition features the swirl on side a. and the large swirl logo and track listings on side b. All rights.... are featured around the label rim. I can hardly see any spindle lines in strong light which indicates that this has hardly been played for an album that is 45 years old
The vinyl.
The vinyl is absolutely superb on initial visual inspection this looks like near new and still retains its original high sheen and has been hardly played at all. I have played this through track for track and the audio quality is superb clear and extremely vibrant. Visually under bright light there are very few surface marks\scuffs. In fact I can barely see two or three light hairlines when held in bright light.
This is one of the best audio that i have heard of this pressing and this is a truly exceptional sounding vinyl. Only the lightest of static crackle and no jumps, pops or clicks. Please remember this is a genuine 45 year old vinyl.
The gatefold sleeve.
This is the original gatefold (non) laminated cover with black on the inside opening which also has the lyric and track contents in the cross. This cover is superb very near pristine with only very light edge rubbing which can hardly be seen. Superb condition of this 1st album cover which is very clean inside and solid black, where usually there is fading and marks.
The vertigo inner sleeve.
This is the original vertigo swirl polythene lined record sleeve patented and made in England. With no splits and no staining with age. No splits or tears.
