Chess EP 5121
Vinyl VG+ / Sleeve Fair
Boy oh boy, it's too bad the sleeve isn't in better condition. Quite rough - has a full side sparation/split at the top edge that someone attempted to tape with resultant tape residue, 2.5" split at lower right corner with one piece of tape. A lot of rub and wear at the edges, and a small name written in ballpoint on the front. The rear cover has sneaker prints on it. Ah well. I'm sure someone with tenacity could make it look quite a bit better.
The vinyl is in good-sounding VG+ condition - plays pretty clean. One .25" scuff on the A-side, doesn't appear to affect play. Several light scratches on the B-side, no notable pop, some crackle. Gloss has lessened over the years, a look of general light wear. The labels are in excellent condition, showing the most minor sort of wear. The numbers are etched in the runoff.
PLEASE NOTE: I have listened at least twice to all the 7” that I currently have at auction, and affirm that there are no skips (unless otherwise noted within the auction description). If there’s notable hissing or pops in the play, I’ve mentioned it. I won’t list anything that rates beneath “Good” unless it’s of exceptional rarity. I will not list anything as Mint, even if it is. Everything is Good to Near Mint. I will note when something is in the original sleeve and will include a photo. Anything else will arrive in a generic vintage sleeve that may include deejay notes and so forth.
Good/G = wear, scratching, scuffing, some gloss remains, good play, potentially some hiss and pop.
Very Good/VG = light scratches, light scuffs, good gloss, good play, potentially some hiss.
Near Mint/NM = virtually no scratches or scuffs, excellent play
SHIPPING will be $3.00 USPS First Class. I utilize proper sleeves and cardboard record mailers. I’m happy to ship internationally, but please ask me for a shipping quote. I’m also happy to combine shipping for multiple purchases. Upon request, insurance and delivery confirmation are available to US customers at extra charge.
These 45s come from a collection accrued over decades in Central New York. Many are radio station copies. There are approximately one hundred 7” left, and I will be listing them over the next few weeks. Please check back in!
