Album Condition & Structural Breakdown
1. The Sonic Content (Vinyl Disc)
- Condition Grade: Factory Mint (M)
- Physical State: 100% untouched, unplayed, and unhandled. The record sits perfectly preserved in a total vacuum of time, exactly as it left the pressing plant machinery in 1978. The grooves retain their absolute pristine factory state, entirely free from any ambient paper scuffs, factory sleeve hair scratches, handling oils, spindle marks, or stylus playback wear. This is a definitive, un-played copy.
2. The Packaging (Jacket & Enclosed Assets)
- Condition Grade: Factory Mint (M) / Still Sealed (SS)
- Shrink Wrap Integrity: Enclosed in its original, late-70s heavyweight factory shrink wrap. The plastic is exceptionally tight, crystal clear, and completely taut across the entire front and back surfaces. There are zero seam splits, no stress-lines, and absolutely no breathing-hole tearing, fragmentation, or clouding.
- Jacket Geometry & Face Quality: The cardstock jacket faces display perfectly flat, flawless geometry with absolutely no structural bowing or storage warping from "shrink snap." The retro group portrait artwork exhibits complete, deep color saturation with zero fading, ring-wear shadows, or shelf-friction dullness.
- Guaranteed Internal Collectibles: Research shows this album may contain the large, original fold-out poster (23" x 33") and the custom illustrated inner sleeve. Because the album does not have any hype stickers indicating the presence of the poster I cannot guarantee it is included.
