Side A: The Large And Growly Bear (Part 1)
Side B: The Large And Growly Bear (Part 2)
Record condition is very good condition, Side A looks very nice but Side B has a couple of light scratches. I have played both sides ENTIRELY and there are no significant issues, just a few click/pop events at the beginning of Side B but these soon fade away - very listenable.
Record has been inserted into a new plastic protective sleeve
The book is also in an external protective plastic sleeve
