Condition: VG/VG+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners, right-edge & lightly other outer-edges. It’s lightly tanned on the surface of each side, while being lightly rippled with ring-crease on that of each side. Short creases are around the rims of each side. Otherwise it has no tear, strip, dent & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is good in condition, keeping glossy. It has slight scuffs in part on each side. A slight scratch is on Side B-2~3 ( inaudible ). There’re several spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any serious flaw ( such as deep scratch ), which is to be rated as "VG+". All flaws are so slight that it plays strong on each side.

OBI: Missing.

INSERT: G, being tanned with some brown stain-marks on the surface of each side.
