This is a copy of MGM/Verve Records 1972 Best of Billie Holiday vinyl LP. I just played it on my stereo and it played well with just a few pops here and there. No skips. The vinyl shows a little surface wear. The sleeve has no splits but has a corner cut. It was stored in a plastic sleeve when I found it and will come that way. The dust sleeve was very yellow and brittle so I replaced it with a new one. Nice player, not the best, not the worst.
