CHICO HOLIDAY
YOUNG IDEAS / CUCKOO GIRL
RCA (RCA 1117)
1959
SLEEVE: COMES IN ORIGINAL BROWN PAPER SLEEVE IN VG CONDITION
RECORD CONDITION:
BOTH SIDES OF THIS RARE SHELLAC PRESSING ARE IN A SUPERB EX+ CONDITION WITH JUST A COUPLE OF THE TINIEST, FAINTEST SURFACE MARKS ON EITHER SIDE. ABSOLUTELY NO NEEDLE MARKS OR SCRATCHES ON THE SURFACES WHATSOEVER. THE SHELLAC RETAINS IT'S DEEP BLACK LUSTRE WITH NONE OF THE USUAL 'GREYING' TO THE GROOVES WHICH CAN OFTEN BE FOUND ON THESE OLD DISCS. IT'S QUITE OBVIOUS THAT THIS RECORD HAS ONLY HAD LIGHT USE. A REALLY LOVELY COPY. YOU WILL STRUGGLE TO FIND A BETTER COPY THAN THIS ONE.
BOTH LABELS ARE SUPERB WITH NO OBVIOUS SPINDLE TRACES ON EITHER SIDE
PLAYBACK IS SUPERB AS YOU WOULD EXPECT. NO CLICKS, TICKS OR POPS AT ALL ON EITHER SIDE EXCEPT ONE SOLITARY TICK AT THE END OF THE 'B' SIDE. PLAYS THROUGH WITH STRONG DISTORTION FREE SOUND
OLD 1950s SHELLAC 78s HARDLY EVER COME ALONG IN THIS KIND OF CONDITION. YOU WILL STRUGGLE TO FIND A BETTER COPY OF THIS RARITY ANYWHERE.
ALL RECORDS ARE SECURELY PACKED USING A PVC SLEEVE FOLLOWED BY LAYERS OF PACKING CARD. THIS IS THEN PLACED IN A DEEP BOX AND SURROUNDED BY PACKING PEANUTS. FINALLY THE BOX IS SECURELY TAPED UP BEFORE DISPATCH
AS A PRIVATE SELLER, POSTAGE WILL BE DETERMINED FOR ME BY EBAY SO IS OUT OF MY CONTROL. IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS PLEASE LET ME KNOW
