It’s coming with different cover, the surface of white is fine-textured. It also shows inside "Japanese liner notes" & "photo of members". The fold-out poster of “Brian Jones” was originally attached inside gate-fold cover with the perforation. Though obi is missing, it’s still hard to find this item even in our country.

COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners & outer-edges. It’s lightly tanned and stained on the surface of each side. A short tape-stain is on the left top-rim inside gate-fold. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is good in condition, keeping glossy. It has some slight scuffs on each side. There are some spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "VG+". Though there’re many scuffs on each “inner groove ( not music surface )”, they don’t affect the sound.

OBI: Missing.
