The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO sticker marks, NO wear (apart from some possible 'touched in' traces around the centre holes), NO stickers, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  The vinyl is in GREAT condition!!!!  Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO nasty concentric marks, only 1 TINY lateral hairline type mark, only 3 or 4 light scufflines, only 2 or 3 VERY light hairlines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!  The record is also has very VERY slightly odd shine to it (only under the VERY brightest lights ONLY!), which may suggest it has been cleaned in some way in the distant past.  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!!  It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with NO pops, only a few VERY light clicks (though mostly NONE!), NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and some audible background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - though this is lost WAY behind the VERY loud music, which still plays VERY well indeed!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with barely ANY distortion AT ALL and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still very VERY presentable indeed!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards  - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press Emitex inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Flipback Laminated 'Patents Pending' MONO Cover is in absolutely BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), NO rips, NO tears, only some very VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to a couple of the corner tips, NO splits, only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), STUNNING shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, NO rubbing, NO ringwear, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  BRILLIANT COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE (ESPECIALLY AS A 'LOUD CUT' MONO 1ST PRESSING!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
