A needle mark on "Chantilly Lace" causes some clicks as the stylus passes through it, and a few skips. It may be possible to eradicate this if you have an adjustable arm weight on your record player. Other than this, the record has been well looked after, and plays with just a handful of light clicks on each side. A few surface and hairline scuffs on each side (one surface scuff quite visible in picture), which as previously stated do not produce any detrimental noise.

The fully laminated "lightweight" sleeve is worn, with rub wear on all edges and knockwear to corners. Ringwear evident as is creasing especially on the left half of the sleeve. Front opening edge is worn, with a little laminate peel. The rear of the sleeve has browned with age and handling, and there is what looks like a large water stain down the entire spine side of the rear (approx 1 to 2 1/2 inches wide - see picture). Both halfmoon flipbacks are intact and complete. Sticker in top right corner, which I'm sure will remove without a problem.

I have detailed the flaws of the sleeve, but these old sleeves are very lightweight and considering it's age it is in very good condition.

Poly-lined plain inner sleeve, unsure if this is the original.

Sticker residue and sticker removal marks on both labels, some light spindle marks. Very little spindle wear.
