Description
Since I have only seen a couple of these ever, I will describe it fully. I have just played the whole record on My Linn LP12 Turntable. It plays through completely with no skips or repeats. There is considerable surface noise but the dynamics of the sound when the tracks kick in is pretty extroardinary. Like being there with some background noise. The white labels are excellent with no deep marks. This is one of the heaviest platters I have ever held and is perfectly flat and true. There is pretty good shine to the record. No deep marks, just numerous scuffs like it was played on an old drop-down phonograph. There is only one feelable line about a quarter inch which does not show up in play. Overall, a playable original copy of an important record you may never see. The cover is nice front and back. All Printing is intact on the back and most of the wear is to the edges. The top seam is cleanly split half way and there is a tiny pen mark to the top back (pic). A truly rare record from Sam Phillips and later of Sun Records.
Let me say something about shipping: I am not Amazon.com. I go to the post office once or twice a week. "Priority mail" means it goes by air...it does not mean it goes out in the next hour. I have never had a package lost and do not get complaints about packing. Of course all your purchases are guaranteed for satisfaction.
All records are guaranteed if returned in same condition.
Records are visually graded unless stated...have been doing this for a long time.
All grades are cover first then record.
MINT is unplayed or sealed.
MINT MINUS is perfect but most likely played.
NEAR MINT is in terrific shape with an inconsequential mark or two not affecting play.
VERY GOOD PLUS is collectible but might have some light scratches and light noise.
Flaws in covers will be noted.
