Cover is in good condition, no tears, no seam splits, no writing but there is medium handling wear to the edges and the rear cover is a bit "grubby" looking! Note that the rear of the cover seems to be the Mono version but a metallic sticker on the front indicates it is the Stereo version. The catalogue number confirms it is the Stereo version.
New inner clear plastic sleeve
Vinyl is in good (minus) condition, visually inspected and I can see a few light ~ medium scratches or marks on both sides, particularly Side A. This album has been played quite a bit over the last 50 years but I wasn't too concerned because this old vinyl material is considerably "hardier" than modern soft vinyl. I then played the album ENTIRELY, every single track, and I was not disappointed. Oh sure there is some low level surface noise but nothing that detracts from Howlin' Wolf doing 'is thing! Some low level click/pops at times but these will not disturb most people. Good solid Blues from the man!
