This pressing came with a plain white inner rather than the die cut picture sleeve. It also has a “Manufacturers Property Not For Sale” sticker on the rear of the sleeve, indicating that this was given to Radio stations prior to release.
The vinyl is in EX to VG+ condition with a few very light marks and scuffs. Non feelable and only a couple. It plays really well throughout with some very light crackle evident in some of the quieter sections. Nothing major and no pops, clicks, sticks or jumps. The vinyl retains its original shine.
The gatefold sleeve has minor edge wear and also grades as VG+ overall. No other issues.
Please have a look at my other listings as I have more records including another stickered Promo of “A Day At The Races” from the same source.
All items are carefully packaged before shipping.
