The label is in perfect condition on both sides. Not even spindle marks! The cover is in good condition, with nice front and back, but tips and edges show shelf wear.

The vinyl is in outstanding visual condition. This LP looks like it was never played. I have not played this record, so my ratings are visual.

Many of the records in this auction have been culled as duplicates from my personal collection of over 4000 LPs. Others are more recent acquisitions for eBay, that I treat with the same respect as my own.
