Comments: The HOLY GRAIL! This is an original US first pressing, not a bootleg! First off, this record I do not believe has ever been played...except for me of course for grading purposes. The reason I say this is because there were still shards of vinyl in the spindle hole and I had to press down harder than usual to seat it on the turntable. Now, the vinyl one side A is near flawless! There is just a faint hint of some light sleeve swiping...very hard to see..only under bright light. This side looks/plays near mint! Side B has a couple more prominent, longish sleeve swipes. Nothing deep by any means. Nothing can be felt by the fingernail. Not that I would try anyways! :) The beginning of this side has some light noise in the very beginning, but fades out rather quickly. This side I rate VG+/NM....which brings me to my overall grading of the vinyl as a whole. The labels are Flawless! Absolutely no signs of spindle wear and again there are still shards of vinyl around the spindle hole. Looks as if it were pressed yesterday! The cover has some light rub wear to both front and back. ALL seams are intact!! There are absolutely no splits! There is very faint wear to corners. No writing or anything of that nature. There are some light yellowish tarnish marks here and there, which is expected for a album cover that is primarily white and of this age. This is a are find! Insurance can be applied at buyers request and expense. Any questions feel free to ask.
All records are shipped in heavy corrugated record mailers.
My $4 shipping price is for the Con. US. Only. Canadian bidders pay $13, please contact me for invoice. All other destinations will be a flat rate of $21.50.

**** NOTE TO BUYERS****
I use the Goldmine record grading system, which is detailed below. Cover's and vinyl are graded separately and may not fall into the same category. If you would like more info about a particular title, please ask. I check Ebay often and will try to get back to you promptly.
M (MINT) - Album is brand new, sealed, and unplayed.
NM (NEAR MINT) - Vinyl looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap. LP cover may have some light rub marks.
VG+ (VERY GOOD PLUS) - Vinyl may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experience. Sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned corners, or a slight seam split. Also may have slight signs of wear also may be marred by a cut out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at discount.
VG (VERY GOOD) - Vinyl has light wear, scratches or scuffs. Covers may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached, or small seam splits.
G (GOOD) - Vinyl has moderate, ever wear throughout, but still playable. Surface noise and scratches. A cover or sleeve will has large seam splits. especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the cover.
P (POOR) - Lowest Grade. Audible scratches, etc. on more than half the tracks. Listening uncomfortable. The sleeve is water damages, split on all three seams or heavily marred by wear and writing.
