Single-pocket cardboard jacket grades visually around Very Good (VG) with mild ring-wear sheen and overall surface rubbing on the front and back John Patrick Byrne artwork, light age toning to the lighter sky areas, and moderate corner and edge wear including small color-loss spots, tiny nicks, and scuffing along the seams but no large seam splits. Printed United Artists company paper inner sleeve grades visually around Very Good (VG) with noticeable age toning, light creasing, and ring impressions but no large tears or writing.
