Condition: See listing Photos for detailed condition.
This is an immaculate FIRST PRESSING of Highway to Hell from 1979.
Vinyl: NM A good description of a NM record is “it looks like it just came from a retail store and it was opened for the first time.” In other words, it’s nearly perfect. Many dealers won’t use a grade higher than this, implying (perhaps correctly) that no record or sleeve is ever truly perfect.
Cover: NM See Photos for detailed condition. Minimal edge wear. Minor Crease in corner. No ring wear.
The vinyls been stored in the original poly sleeve and out of the cover for most of its life, to reduce ring wear.  
Vinyl has been stored in the original poly sleeve, and this inner sleeve has been stored within another paper & poly sleeve for protection.  
Feel free to ask questions or request additional photographs.  I'll give you quick responses and additional photos.

Vinyl has been stored in the original poly sleeve, and this inner sleeve has been stored within another paper & poly sleeve for protection.  
General wear to the top of the cover was likely done as the paper inner centre hole caught the cover when you reinsert it into the outer sleeve.  If you're bidding on this vinyl record, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about here.  Looking inside the cover, there appears to be no wear - certainly NO SPLITS.  I'd try to photograph this, but it's a risky move and I'm pretty trustworthy guy.
Feel free to ask questions or request additional photographs.  I'll give you quick responses and additional photos.
