This is a genuine official pressing not a more recent pirate "re-issue".  This was from stock from when I closed my record store in 2007.  The Vinyl is near mint except for a small blemish probably from manufacture on the run in to side 4.  There are about 3 clicks then silence before the track starts.  The sleeve is excellent with the slightest sign of storage.  It also has the b/w insert.  Please also note the following although the black pen is hardly noticeable.

A note about the album you're looking at.  For over 30 years I owned a town centre record store.We sold mostly new items but also had a thriving second-hand department. When one of my best customers was changing from vinyl to CD as he could no longer get all his music on vinyl he started part-exchanging his records.  We then discovered that he had a system to tell him when he had listened to and probably recorded an album (he did buy a lot).  He timed the tracks and wrote this and the total in black felt pen on the inner sleeve if it was a plain one and on the inside of the inner sleeve if it was a picture one.  He then ran the felt tip pen down the edge of the opening of the outer sleeve to tell him that he had dealt with this item.  This is usually hardly noticeable particularly if the cover is dark.  If you look at the front or rear of the sleeve the chances are you will not see anything .   Generally his records came back in excellent condition and were sought after by other buyers so if you do buy or are considering buying one I hope you find this explanation useful.       Thanks   Dave
