NOTES: Discogs entry of images for the original 4001 is inaccurate. Both sides of the disc should be thin text, and jacket should be heavy laminate with vivid color saturation. This is a true original pressing featuring the thinner address text on label and heavier stock jacket. Hardly any sun damage on the spine—typically common with this title. Some laminate crackle on the front, consistent with dozens of copies I've seen. This copy plays as well as my personal copy. Mint disc with close to perfect playback.

OVERALL GRADE: NM
