Vinyl is in great condition overall with some very minor sleeve removal marks and hairlines under strong light only. Visually grades VG+ to EX-. A tiny amount of very low level crackle on run ins/and a few spaces between tracks only. Only other issue is there are 6 clicks near the start of Bohemian Rhapsody. Other wise plays great. The music is loud and clear throughout with no distortion or obvious crackle. Really nice playing original copy on the whole! Plays EX overall.
The sleeve has a little age related discolouration/finger marks but nothing major. EX- and they should “rub out” with a pencil eraser if desired.
Original die cut inner is VG with a 3” split s on bottom edge but not fully through. I will include a new poly lined inner.
