Condition Description & Other Information ## This was the former property of '4 ZZZ" Radio... to discourage employees from stealing these rare vinyl's, they deliberately spoiled the their overall look. In this instance by taping all edges, writing '4 ZZZ' over front cover & Side 1 label. Previous owner attempted to remove this from front cover which was only part successful & has left some very faded areas. Caravan are an English Band from Canterbury, founded by former Wilde Flowers members David Sinclair, Richard Sinclair, Pye Hastings, and Richard Coughlan in 1968. The band have never achieved the great commercial success that was widely predicted for them at the beginning of their career, but are nevertheless considered a key part of the Canterbury scene of progressive rock acts, blending psychedelic rock, jazz, and classical influences to create a distinctive sound. ## The Vinyl is described as Near Mint to Mint. Very few, if any signs of play. Maybe 1 or 2 extremely fine hairlines and/or sleeve marks. Maybe 1 or 2 spindle marks. '4 ZZZ'  written with black felt tip on Side1 label. The Vinyl has retained all of its rich waxy lustre. The Cover I am grading as VG & for those prospective buyers looking for a great cover, please stay far away from this one. Having said that however, the Cover is strong & to all intents & purposes is a very satisfactory VG+. All edges taped. There is some visible edge/spine & corner-wear. Fine cracks to spine & edges with associated wrinkles. Ring-wear to front & verso. There are some colour & paper losses to edges & spine. There are some areas of foxing to front & verso. A few stains here & there. (Issues with front cover discussed above.) Please see attached photos...
