Vinyl plays with crackles and occasional clicks and pops (play-graded). Cover looks great; a few creases near edges; light-scuffing, tiny surface abrasions, Discoloration spots, and surface impressions (front/back). Inner-sleeve is original (polydor ads); two seams partially split. Spine is partly readable with wear. Shelf-wear along top/bottom-edge and corners. Split near right of bottom-edge. Opening is crisp with signs of light use and divots. (Not a cut-out.)
