Imperfections include surface scratches, miscellaneous marks, dings/indentations, creases, edge/perimeter wear, severe color loss, soiling and yellowing due to age. There's blue marks along the perimeter on the rear of the disc and some discoloration and extensive soiling.  There's some miscellaneous marks on the front of the disc which has resulted in some color loss as well as edge/perimeter wear/deterioration.  There's also a visible crease on the back of the disc, stains, yellowing and severe discoloration.
