Condition: VG/NM-/NM- ~ EX+ ( Cover / Disc 1/2 )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for lightly worn corners & spine-edge. Light ring-wear is in part inside gate-fold, while it’s clean outside. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip, stain & writing…OK.

DISC 1: Disc 1 is nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There are a few to several spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which can be rated as "NM". No flaw on the groove…very clean disc, we guarantee you.

DISC 2: Disc 2 is also nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. A few slight scuffs are on Side B ( but none on Side A ). There are several spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "above”. No flaw on the groove of Side A and mostly on Side B…very clean disc, we guarantee you.

OBI: G+, being aged and scraped on the surface of each side, while being partly ragged along the left top & rim of front sides. Both top corners are worn. Tape-stain marks are on the left & right corners of front side with a few short tears.
