Condition: VG/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for light ring-wear in upper portion of front. It’s creased in left top corner & the spine-rims, while being lightly discolored around the rims of each side ( mainly in left top hand of back ). Otherwise it has none of any tear, edge-wear, dent, strip, stain & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. There are a few spindle-marks with stain-marks on each label ( See photos ). Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as “EX+". No flaw on the groove…very clean disc, I guarantee you. Without .the stain-marks on each label, it should be “NM”.

OBI: VG, being lightly stained on the surface of back, with its upper portion of each side creased.

INSERT: VG, being lightly discolored & creased on the surface of each side.
