Description
Inherited from a relative, along with other stuff I am currently selling. Very rare album by Charlie Parker - and in very nice order indeed.
Grading:- Cover looks very nice. Spine is perfect and straight. Minimal creasing and cover lies perfectly flat. Shiny laminate with just a touch of record impression. No splits, no sticker marks, and no tears. No edge wear. Slight corner wear and all corners still quite square looking. Back of cover has no rubbing, minimal toning, and nice foldovers. I willl grade the cover Very Good+. Record still has its original plastic circular inner - unsplit and real nice. The record is very nice indeed. It is very bright and shiny, with no marks, only 2 or 3 super light surface traces, and the odd touch of paper rubbing under light. Still jet black with beautiful labels. Plays really well too with only the odd touch of background crackle in places, and no hiss. I will grade the record Excellent. Really rare jazz album in very nice order!
That's it. Good luck.
Dispatched with Royal Mail 2nd Class Signed For.
