The outer single-pocket jacket is structurally solid with clear text, but shows typical vintage storage wear, including minor edge rubbing and surface scuffing. The original custom-printed ATCO catalog advertising inner sleeve is included but features a heavy 4” multi-tear and crumpling along the right side opening edge as explicitly captured in the close-up photo).Pressing Details: US First Pressing, Columbia Terre Haute Plant Press, Early Lacquer Run, Matrix Side One: ST-C-671075-1B CT.Shipping: Ships securely in a dedicated cardboard vinyl mailer.
