Visually graded between VG and VG+ with no finger-felt scratches. Both sides play-grade strong VG with light surface noise that does not overpower or overly distract from this amazing playing.
GREAT copy to satisfy your desire for supremely talented musicianship until you can find an affordable copy that plays even quieter.
If you research the sales history, you'll find that copies that are less "used" have sold of up to $100 and even more than that in recent years.
No skips and no loud pops were detected on either side.
The jacket is VG+ with light shelf wear at the edges / tops and bottom.
Other than a bit of fraying and light splitting on an inch of the top left corner, the spine and seams are intact.
The back side has detailed fine-print notes, technical notes about this early Mono (pre-stereo) release, and there are no stains.
No price-stickers, No notch-cut, NO corner-cut, NO drill hole, NO writing, other than:
the rear lower corner has a small, typical ball-point pen small number listed, probably the price.
I will gladly combine shipping so that you get the most affordable cost.
