Item Description

Cal Tjader – Latin For Lovers (Fantasy – 3279)

Pressing features: 1st Original US Press, 1959, Mono

Vinyl Record grade: VG+ (almost VG++), vinyl has a deep, high-gloss sheen—almost mirror-like—indicating excellent preservation. Only extremely faint, minuscule hairlines exist here and there—these are so fine that they’re hard to spot under normal lighting. They barely affect playback, causing no noticeable impact. Overall, a fine copy given its age. 

Cover/Jacket grade: VG+ to VG, jacket has sticker removal damage (top right) and more pronounced shelf wear but no seam splits, artwork is clear with no ring wear, no writing on jacket, spine is strong

Other contents:

__________________________________________________________________________________

Record will be packed in a plastic outer sleeve with the record placed outside of the album jacket to prevent seam splits and securely sent in a reinforced media mailer with fragile stickers displayed on outside.
