Record is EX+ the vinyl is unmarked, nice black sheen, with just a few spindle marks visable in strong light, it does not look like a 40-year old record.
The LP plays superbly, and is quiet between tracks, with no pops or bangs, with just some soft pips on the short quiet track 2 on side 1.
The cover is EX, with a very nice clean, high gloss laminated front cover.
There is very minimal partial ringwear impression on the front & back cover that is hard to see.
The spine and edges are excellent, with all lettering clearly visible, as new, on the spine.
The cover has just a crease in the bottom righthand corner, otherwise the cover is in excellent shape.
The record sleeve is the DECCA original, still reasonably crisp, with just some minimal discolouring of the white background on the edges, due to its age.
Please see my feedback on selling LPs over the last couple of years.
The record will be packed in a stiff package specifically designed for sending vinyl throught the post, with added protection on the corners
