CONDITION:

The gradations of condition I use are as follows: MINT, Near-Mint, Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor.

The condition of the gatefold jacket is VERY GOOD+. There is a minor bend to the lower-left corner, bumping at corners in general, slight edgewear, and a bit of discoloration to the rear panel. However, there are no seamsplits or owners' markings and the album remains solid and very attractive in appearance – overall, a strong collector's copy.  

The condition of the LP itself is EXCELLENT. The surfaces are not CD silent, but overall the playback is superb – an excellent collector's copy.
