LABEL: Sony SPOZ 7-8-9 (1974 Japan Quad)

CONDITION:
Sleeve: VG+ to VG++ / The VG+ grade is mostly due to corner wear w/ 3 small pieces of tape at 3 corners and 1/4" cardboard loss at the top left corner. Has some light front cover wear, some light bottom seam & spine wear. The rest of the cover just has some light random wear.
Record: Looks Mint- w/ just some light surface scuffs on Side A, Record 2 which do not affect play. Plays almost Mint- w/ just a touch of very light random background surface noise, mostly at the beginning of each side. By the spindle holes it looks like these LP's have been carefully played a couple of times. Fantastic recording and presence. / VPI cleaned
