In my continuing quest to bring you fine vinyl, I'm happy to offer the record(s) listed above.  (and of course, as usual, please check out my other listings to find things that you may need).
WOWZERS! 100% original here!! No reissues/boots on my page, EVER! Brilliant copy of this  classic; a complete and utter beautiful mess from 1969! Coffey has been involved in, well, just about everything in music; session man extraordinaire, production on well over 100 releases and  close to 300 credits for writing and/or arrangement. 
Incredibly hard to find record. Esp the original (which this is), and if memory serves, was changing hands at  one point to the tune of ~$650 USD, and this copy will be far less than that.  I've included pics of the unofficial and/or re-release in the 5th and 6th pictures in this listing for purposes of  comparison. Original pressings on this have a very wide concentric 'deep groove' almost to  the top of the 'E' in "Maverick", thicker typeface, closer kerning.
Side A: Many light, long scratches. Quite a few of them, actually. Disappointing to see, but I've gotta be honest. Gloss and shine are very much present, and if the disc is tilted correctly, you can see the rainbow effect on the grooves. Should have a gentle and thorough cleaning. Definitely the lower end of VG+. 
Side B: There is a tiny bit of cross-arc stuff on the intro wax. Playback indicates 2 clicks and then the music  drowns out the rest. Far less scratches and even MORE shine. Easy VG+; almost VG++. 
Ephemera/various: The records that I'm currently posting came from a VERY well-known American family's estate sale. Naturally, for reasons of privacy, I will not divulge the information, however...let's just say that this famous name  does indicate something akin to provenance. 
Crisp and very sharp front cover; EX. Back cover ringwear; VG+.
As with all records, a careful dusting/cleaning may be required for optimum playback. 
FIVE DAY ONLY SALE. VISUAL GRADING ONLY!!
Please see and examine pictures, as they are part of the listing. If you would like additional pics, just let me know!
NOTE: Due to the pandemic, there are mail delays all over the US. Please allow for some  extra time for shipments to arrive. 
It is preferable that payment be made ASAP, however, due to various circumstances,  I'm allowing up to three days for payment to be made. Anything after that, and an unpaid item case automatically opens. If you don't plan on paying, then don't bid.
All offers carefully and cheerfully considered...unless it's a lowball. Don't waste YOUR time. 
Shipping: 
I'm happy to combine shipping for orders! 
No matter how many LP's you purchase, the shipping cost will never go over the current Media Mail rate (currently $3.45). 
I ship all of my ( soon to be your ) items as such:
1. Poly outer sleeve, if available.  2. Cardboard stiffeners for added package strength (in case of shipping delays for supplies, I will use 2 record jackets.  3. A stiffener is placed under the record, then the next one is turned at 90° with the record in between. 4. Specialized mailing boxes are exclusively used for mailing vinyl media. 
If you are getting more than one record from me, please wait until I send you an invoice. 
Any questions? Please feel free to contact me. I've an open-door policy! :) I WILL happily process returns if the item arrives damaged, or is significantly different than advertised. I will NOT process refunds due to buyer's remorse, I'm sorry to say.
