I got this record at an auction here in Vancouver as part of a larger lot of records in very good condition, which I will put on auction in the coming weeks. The former owner apparently brought the records from France, since all are made in France and many of them still have the price tag in French Francs on them. They are from the late sixties to the early eighties and testify the good taste of a serious collector both in the selection of rare and unique labels as well in the careful treatment of the collection. In fact most of the records seem to have been played not once, flaws if any coming exclusively from examinations by potential bidders at the auction previewing the lot.
Both vinyl and sleeve are in near mint condition, I think this record was never played, and I only visually inspected it. The record is in a plastic insert.

Of course I would combine shippings.
