Black inner sleeve has the patent numbers:
1125555

Unfortunately no longer with inserts.
Just looked for scratches.
You can see some when the record is held in certain positions to the light.
I've yet to play it, I may play it once to give feedback on how well it plays and update the listings later.
Valued between 300 - 800 pounds.
Will be sent by special delivery in the UK
On 07-Feb-13 at 17:59:17 GMT, seller added the following information: Just has another look at the condition of the record.
Any marks look very minor and can only be seen in certain positions.
The record should play very well.
Has some minor fluff, the same you would get with a new record though.
I don't know how to rate records but would maybe may this is close to excellent condition.
Definitely great shape.
The outer sleeve has some wear where you can see small bits of white (mainly on edges - see photos) but is in one piece.
There is some white chalk like substance in the middle of the sleeve when opened (see photo) can probably just easily be rubbed off but I didn't want to alter anything myself.
Will test the sounds quality of the record later and update.
On 07-Feb-13 at 20:57:47 GMT, seller added the following information: I have just played this record and it plays beautifuly.
Nice build up, with the soft banging gradually getting louder.
Quite crisp in some parts.
The ending sounded great
It doesn't get stuck or skip at all.
A few times there were slight cackles on certain tracks.
I noticed an obvious one on the first song on side two which almost overrode the song for a second.
But there was quite a bit of fluff on the record and considering it hardly has any marks, I really think any cackles can easily be removed with a record vacuum or cleaned.
On 08-Feb-13 at 22:28:12 GMT, seller added the following information: I've had a few questions about mother stampers/numbers on the run around.
There quite difficult to take pictures of but have added a final picture of where the (C-1) is located on side 2 of the record.
I should also mention that I have spotted a slight rip in the inner black sleeve, which covers the record.
The rip is near where the hole is,
But this can be seen on some of the photos.
