Condition:-

The pasted picture sleeve [VG+] has no writing or stickers - there is the odd small crease in the top right & bottom left corner. The panels remain striking looking & there is some gentle foxing both sides with age. There is a little bit of chipping & withering to the paper around a few corners & edges & no actual seam splits.

The labels have no tears or writing & a 'deep groove' is present both sides. The hallmark of quality is the 'ear' logo etching in the dead wax areas near the labels. This pinpoints the era & let's you know you a authentic late fifties heavyweight pressing before the lighter pressed Liberty re-issues [Liberty bought the company in '66 & immediately transferred to a new plant to complement their expansion plan: All-Disc, Roselle N.J., & the quality did drop!]. There is also a 'flat edge' before the run-ins.

The vinyl is nice & clean & in Excellent condition. Playback is superb & visually you may spot the odd tiny spindle mark & paper scuff having no effect on play. This is a great collector's example.
