Sleeve:-
The sleeve is over a slightly later design than the first issue, with no flipbacks and the front still laminated. There is a little general yellowing and faint ringwear discolouration to the reverse leaving it graded as EX-.

Labels:-
These are the original red & silver London Atlantic design with a 'deep groove'. The matrices in the dead wax are machine stamped:
Side 1: AML-1608-1B
Side 2: AML-1609-1B

There is no real sign of play to the labels, which remain bright & clear.
Vinyl:-
The vinyl itself has very little sign of play and we grade it as Excellent, however this is a conservative grading and in reality there is no discernable evidence of play.
