Gate-fold cover looks good; a few creases near edges; moderate scuffing and surface impressions (front/back). Discoloration with darker spots on inner-gate. Inner-sleeves are generic white. Spine is easy-to-read with mild wear. Shelf-wear along top/bottom-edges and corners with small splits at opening side. Openings are slightly rippled with signs of use and divots. (Not a cut-out.)

In fact, none of Wynette's hit singles up to this point appeared on this double LP set. Instead, it collects earlier, non-charting singles, album tracks, and the like. At the time, the casual fan who just wanted to hear the hits might have felt a bit cheated, but THE WORLD OF TAMMY WYNETTE is not a cynical cash-in ploy: the material is uniformly fine and Wynette's voice is, as always, magical. Furthermore, this two-LP set quickly became the easiest way for fans to lay hands on some of Wynette's rarities.
