Jacket:   Jacket is in overall nice shape, with several minor flaws.  Front art work is clean and bright.  No splits or stickers.  Original owner wrote name "Wee Willie" in neat pen in upper left corner on reverse.  Shows slight surface wear on reverse and minor wear spots at corners. 

Vinyl:  Vinyl is very clean, has several light hairline marks scuffs on each side that do not affect the playing.  There are no serious marks, and virtually no wear.  Fidelity is excellent.  This is a very fine playing copy of this essential early Blue Note gem.
