To enjoy this gold vinyl album, first, make sure your turntable is clean and in good working condition. Gently remove the vinyl from the sleeve, holding it by the edges to avoid fingerprints and scratches. Place it carefully on the turntable and start playing. After use, clean the vinyl with a soft anti - static brush to keep it in top shape. Store the album in a cool, dry place, standing upright in a record storage case. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures as this can damage the vinyl. When handling the sleeve, be gentle to prevent any tears or creases, as it has beautiful illustrations that add to the album's charm.
