Vinyl plays with occasional light-crackles (play-graded). 7" Single. Generic white sleeve looks good; light scuffing and discoloration with darker discoloration spots (front/back). Minor shelf-wear along edges and corners; top corner is cut and other corners are a little creased. Opening is crisp with signs of light use and a few tiny tears. (Not a cut-out.)
