BUDDY HOLLY - BROWN EYED HANDSOME MAN / WISHING b/w  BO DIDDLEY / TRUE LOVE WAYS

US CORAL EP EC 81193  SUPERB NEAR MINT CONDITION!


Here is a very rare EP by Buddy Holly, "Brown Eyed Handsome Man." This was released by Coral Records (EC 81193) in ( I believe) 1963. This super condition  vinyl 45 rpm EP record is minimally VG++, closer to VG++++  actually, with essentially NOTHING that can be seen that could be described as a flaw.  Viewed under direct bright light there is nothing  that can be discerned. This 45 is supremely  clean and retains superb gloss. It is tempting to grade it Mint-, or conceivably better, it is that clean!

 Stamped matrix info reads: "S 4466 1/S 4467 1." Songs contained on this EP are: Brown Eyed Handsome Man, Wishing, Bo Diddley, and True Love Ways. Picture sleeve is minimally VG+, very conservatively graded, with no seam splits. The spine & top & bottom edges of the EP are beautifully clean, square, straight, intact & undamaged.  Amazing, really, for a sleeve of this vintage. Only the tiniest little indentation, just above the cut out hole, detracts from the spine being 100% perfect.

The front of the picture sleeve is near perfect, see the photo for evidence of this. There is one tiny white mark just above the left hand side of Buddy's face, approximately under the letter "R" in the CORAL logo at the top right of the sleeve.  This is minor, but I mention it nonetheless.  There is one hole drilled through the jacket - in the front upper right corner  The front still retains a superb  gloss and the colors are wonderfully bright, clean, crisp & clear.  The rear of the sleeve is also in fine condition, see the photo for evidence of this.

The label is bright clean , unmarked, flawless.  See the photo for evidence of this.

This is a fantastic condition copy of an extremely rare EP, with both sleeve & disc being miraculously well preserved.  Tough to imagine a cleaner copy showing up....

I guarantee this record to be 100% as described.  Any further questions, just ask, I will be happy to answer any & all. 

This item will only be sent insured mail, the cost for this is .79¢ per $100.00 value in the US, and $1.00 per $100.00  value if shipped outside the USA.  The record will be extremely well packed for shipping, see my feedback for confirmation of this, and note previous customers satisfaction with purchasing high end records & memorabilia  from me.  The $1.00 handling fee covers the expense of purpose built, heavy duty 45 mailers & inserts.

Thanks for reading, good luck if bidding.
