Record: VG+

Additional Notes

Rare West Coast First Pressing with one BMI credit (on “I Want To Hold Your Hand.”) The rest of the songs are credited to ASCAP.

Because 80 percent of Capitol’s albums were pressed on the East Coast, the early West Coast pressings of these albums are becoming increasingly rare. Don’t miss this one!

COVER

Ringwear

Light

Edgewear

Light

Storage Wear

Very Light

Seam Splits

Additional Notes

There are several moderate markings made in blue, black and red ink on the front and back cover. These marks are mostly on the front but are harder to see due to the overall darkness of the cover. There are also several indentations in the cover which appear to be made by writing thru a piece of paper. These marks cannot be seen unless held up to the light.

Were it not for these slight imperfections, the cover would easily grade VG++ or higher.

VINYL

Surface Scratching

Light to Moderate

Scuffing

There is a light to moderate amount of needle scuffing present on both sides of the record. These marks cannot be felt to the touch.

Play Tested

Yes

Surface Noise

Additional Notes

A very enjoyable listen!

A NOTE FROM THE SELLER:

Please note that because of the rarity of this item, it is being sold AS IS. Please ask any and all questions before bidding on this item. Thank you!

A NOTE TO INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS:

I CANNOT SHIP INTERNATIONALLY ON THIS ITEM. I APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS MAY CAUSE.

BELOW I HAVE POSTED THE GRADING SYSTEM I USE FOR ALL MY RECORDS:

SEALED: Sealed at factory and never opened. Vinyl is assumed to be mint, but cannot be sure until opening.

NM: When I grade something near mint, you know the only thing that isn't perfect about it is that someone actually opened it. There could be a light scuff mark or two from taking it out of the sleeve. The jacket will look like new.

VG++: These LPs appear not to have been played more than once or twice. You can expect to see scuffs or other insignificant surface marks very minor that will have no effect whatsoever on the sound of the recording. Jacket will show very slight, just beginning ring wear. Maybe a little wear in the corners.

VG+: Records in this condition have obviously been played a few times, though they have been well taken care of. You can expect to see a few light marks, but they should have a minimal effect, if any at all, on the sound of the recording. Jacket will very likely show noticeble ring and edge wear and maybe one or two other minor flaws. Anything more will be noted.

VG: These albums have been played quite a few times and although not abused you will see and hear signs of use. But, the music will dominate your listening experience and you shouldn't be overwhelmed by the various vinyl nuances, such as tics, pops, crackles and hisses. You should still be able to sit back and fully enjoy listening to an album in this condition.
Jacket will have a number of flaws, such as heavy ring and seam wear, writing, small seam splits, stickers, etc.

G: I try not to go here, but if it's a rare or exceptionally great piece of music that must be heard, then I'll offer it. But the noise will be very noticeable, and you'll want to find a better copy. Still, the record will be fully playable, and you should enjoy it because it's such wonderful music. Jackets in this condition will have large seam splits, large writing, paper tears, or water damage. But it will still be fully capable of protecting the album inside.

F: I'll never go here on both the vinyl and jacket. This would have to be a case where the vinyl was playable with a bad jacket OR a real special jacket with the record not of much use. You won't see this very often!
