Australian release
Gatefold cover is in very good condition, no writing, no tears, no seam splits and the edges GENERALLY have only have very light handling wear, the exception being the top edge/near the spine - a light damage here. Nice monochrome photographs inside the gatefold
New inner sleeve
Both vinyl are in very good condition, visually inspected both of them under a bright white halogen light source and I can only see a couple of very light marks/scratches on each record/side. I then played the ENTIRE release, both records and every single track, and there are no issues with surface noise or click/pops BUT this issue was noticed ...
RECORD ONE Last track, Side 2 - just after the opening there is a tiny (short) mistrack. I looked very closely at the vinyl but I cannot see what is causing this. Cleaned a few more times and this 'improved' things but the mistrack remains
There are no further mistracking issues on Record One or Two
