THE FULLY OUTER LAMINATED SLEEVE IS VG+, SOME DIRTYING TO THE OPEN EDGE AND WITH SOME LOSS OF COLOUR / FADING TO THE SPINE. THE SLEEVE GENERALLY THOUGH IS GREAT. THE LAMINATE IS SOLID AND THE VIBRANT YELLOW COLOUR ELSEWHERE IS EXCELLENT. THE SPINE TEXT IS FULLY READABLE, THERE IS NO WRITING, OR DAMAGE TO ANY PART OF THE SLEEVE. THE INNER UNLAMINATED GATEFOLD IMAGE IS EXCELLENT. SLEEVE PRINTED BY EJ DAY.
LABELS ON BOTH SIDES ARE EXCELLENT. AS MENTIONED THE A-SIDE IS MINUS THE EMI BOX, AND THE B-SIDE CONTAINS THE EMI BOX, SUGGESTING A TRANSITIONAL PRESSING WITH ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS MATRIX NUMBERS, PRODUCED DURING THE LABEL CHANGES AND UPDATES TO INCLUDE THE EMI BOX, MAKING THIS PRESSING VERY RARE.
