The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing (apart from a TINY motif on 1 label), NO wear, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  In fact, the few spindle marks that are around the centre holes - look to be from 'searching' for the hole - rather than overplay!!!!  The vinyl is in SUPERB condition!!!!  Most of these 60s/70s 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 scratches, NO hairlines, only 1 MEGA light TINY scuffline, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOKS SUPERB!!!!  It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some absolutely ULTRA faint touches of MEGA low level background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade FULL Excellent if not better!!!!  SUPERB RECORD!!!!  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 IMPOSSIBLY RARE 'PICTURE/LYRIC' INNER SLEEVE IS IN GREAT CONDITION AND LOOKS BRILLIANT!!!!  The inner does have an absolutely MEGA thin line of completely INVISIBLE 'invisible' tape (NOT nasty sellotape!) around the edges of the inner (virtually IMPOSSIBLE to see!), but there is NO fraying to the opening edge, NO rubbing, and it holds the record PERFECTLY!!!!  And remember - this IMPOSSIBLY RARE 'Picture inner' is IMPOSSIBLE to find in ANY condition (99% dont have one - and this is the ONLY one I have EVER seen!) - and this inner looks absolutely BRILLIANT!!!!  A GREAT CONDITIONED 'PICTURE' INNER SLEEVE AND A BRILLIANT EXAMPLE!!!!  The 1st Press Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, only VERY slight spinal wear (most of the spine is completely UNWORN - with just a slight amount of 'yellowing/roughening' about half way down), only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), barely ANY rubbing AT ALL (virtually NONE!), NO sticker tears, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, barely ANY yellowing AT ALL (virtually NONE!), NO ringwear, NO rubbing and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good+ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND 100% COMPLETE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!
