ABOUT THIS COPY:
The gatefold Sleeve has a worn spine and some light scribble on the front , and a small split on the opening edge - all visible in the photos - inside gatefold is good and it is intact.
The vinyl has usage marks / light hairlines that cause light background noise occasionally - it is a good listen
Has the original inner sleeve - poly lined with blue text ‘U.K. Patent No. 1,072,844 & Foreign Patents Pending’ which is a little discoloured and has a slight rip on bottom edge. New poly lined sleeve included :)
According to the DC reference above , textured sleeve copies , with the extra 1mm gap in track listing as specified, seem pretty rare !
