Vinyl Condition: Mint- (Looks Unplayed!)The Vinyl on both playing surfaces visually appear to look like as nearly 'New' in strong daylight both sides are Stunning and Flawless and visually vinyl looks BARELY PLAYED and looks completely free from any suface marks or wear/blemishes looks virtually UNMARKED on even closer examination under a strong halogen bulb it's very hard to find or detect any marks on this exceptional near perfect vinyl disc  If I'm going to be over critical and you look hard enough it only just about reveals nothing more than some insignificant very very feint mild wispy small hairline traces from inner sleeve removal on each side that absolutely dosen't effect the virtually Perfect Audio Playback - The vinyl still retains it's original factory pressed look with jet black shiny gloss sheen and lustre - It would be virtually impossible to find vinyl that will better this one!!!  

AUDIO PLAYBACK ASSESSMENT:  - SUPERB UNINTERRUPTED CRYSTAL CLEAR CLARITY AND POWER ON AUDIO PLAYBACK END TO END - Audio is Graded as NEAR MINT - There are No Clicks,pops,skips,jumps or repeats and shows No other annoying  audio noise distortions during playback If I'm going to be Ultra Critical whilst listening through the playback you may get occasionally when the very quiet tracks begin to play or on the start of run ins and inbetween tracks you may get some very light static crackle for a second or two and then it just fades away but absolutely nothing of any consequence that will spoil your overall enjoyment of this exceptional Iconic Classic Album - Overall  its just a Fantastic listening Experience that comes from this near Perfect Dynanmic Mono Audio performance!!! 

Labels Condition: EX+  Labels being the Red Unboxed Decca with red vibrant labels with bright Silver written text are just Superb and look near perfect and with only little evidence showing of Spindle usage marks or trails showing across either of the Labels with No real wear around the spindle hole which still looks excellent its very evident that it has barely ever been played over 43 years and when played it was done very carefully as there is not that much evidence to show of any excessive audio play use to be seen!!!

Cover Condition: Mint-  An Original James Upton front Laminated picture sleeve cover - The superb Clarifoil Laminate on this amazing pristine example shines like its near as 'New' - That's totally intact with No obvious and noticable Laminate lifting or Wrinkles to be seen with ultra straight unworn edges and a razor sharp opening edge with only very mild corner rub bumps but basically is near perfect - The cover Looks to be virtually Unmarked - Flat crisp and very clean and still shows all it's original bold vibrant vivid colours on front of cover the Non-Laminated back of cover is still Superb very clean and exceptional and totally intact with all the drawings by 'Charlie Watts' that cover majority of the back area of sleeve are just fantastic still all in an Original state and near Pristine condition as they ever were with the rest of cover showing the same with No wear or blemishes - Under even closer scrutiny the only blemishes I can find if you look hard enough is a some very light small storage rub wear on the top of cover and corners with some very small laminate edge creases and a hint of light usual yellow ageing discolour on the back edges and I do mean light! none of the said mentioned is that noticable (this doesn't in anyway detract from the overall exceptional condition of cover) 

Spine Condition: MINT- The pinched spine is near Mint very clean totally intact and near perfect - Still amazingly fully laminated with all written text still showing to be bold clear legible and perfectly worded just like nearly 'New' along the narrow spine edge  

Inner Sleeve: EX+ The original Decca 'Patent Applied for' White polylined Record company sleeve with 3 blue boxes containing blue text on front is in immaculate and Exceptional order being very clean intact condition and shows no evidence of any real handling wear over it's lifetime - Absolutely NO Tears,Splits,Ink Writting,Stickers or other Blemishes apart from a little yellow/brown aging tinges around the edges

 The overall Brilliant Pristine condition of this Album is mainly due to the superb dry storage conditions and thick plastic cover protection on this LP Record over it's Lifetime!!!
