	£		57
	$		76

ATTENTION 1950s GIRL SINGER AND 10 INCH LP COLLECTORS!

I HAVE JUST BOUGHT ONE OF THE BIGGEST AND BEST COLLECTIONS I HAVE EVER SEEN OF 1950s AND EARLY 1960s GIRL SINGERS LPs,EPs AND 45s.

MANY MORE TO FOLLOW FROM ME OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS ON MY EBAY LISTS!

HERE IS A RARELY SEEN GEM IN SUPERB STRICTLY GRADED NEAR MINT CONDITION!

THE FIRST EVER UK LP ISSUED FEATURING THE EGYPTIAN BORN(TO ITALIAN PARENTS)FRENCH BASED DIVA SINGER,DALIDA.

"THE GLAMOROUS DALIDA".

DECCA PRESSED FELSTED SILVER PRINT LABELS: SDL 86053+1B/1B MATRIXES-THICK VINYL AS WELL AS THE ORIGINAL PVC INNER BAG AND A FULLY LAMINATED COVER WITH THE FLIPBACK AND DATE CODE:3/57(MARCH 1957)-IT WAS PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A YEAR AS DECCA'S OUTPUT ON THE MANY LABELS THEY PRESSED WAS MASSIVE AND ONLY MAJOR SELLERS WERE KEPT IN PRINT FOR MORE THAN A YEAR-I KNOW THIS FROM TALKING TO A DECCA MANAGEMENT PERSON MANY YEARS AGO!.

ALTHOUGH SHE WAS A MASSIVE INTERNATIONAL STAR WITH HITS IN MANY COUNTRIES,DALIDA HAD MINIMAL ATTENTION,EXPOSURE AND SALES IN THE UK WITH THIS 10 INCH LP BEING MEGA-RARE!

PROBABLY ONLY A FEW HUNDRED COPIES MADE AS IN 1957 DEMAND FOR LPs BY NON-UK ARTISTS WAS MINIMAL-MANY ONLY SUPPLIED TO SPECIAL ORDER-THIS BEING THE FIRST COPY I HAVE FOUND IN OVER 25 YEARS AS A DEALER AND 40 YEARS AS A COLLECTOR-VERY FEW COPIES SURVIVE AND THIS COPY IS AN EXCEPTIONAL EXAMPLE WHICH I DOUBT HAS HAD MORE THAN 3 OR 4 PLAYS!

NO SPINDLE WEAR+GLEAMING SURFACES!

THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN NEAR THE TOP OF THE"WANTS LISTS"FOR MANY LP COLLECTORS!

HERE IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY!

THE COVER IS NICE AND CLEAN WITH ONLY TINY LAMINATION PEELING AT THE FRONT EDGE AND A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES HOWEVER THERS IS NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS!

PLEASE SEE BOTH OF THE PHOTOS! 

A COUPLE OF VERY TINY AND FAINT SURFACE MARKS IN STRONG LIGHT BUT HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AND GLEAMING SURFACES!

NO CLICKS,STICKS OR JUMPS! SOUNDS GREAT!

A COPY THAT HAS NOT HAD MANY PLAYS! 

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN DREADFUL CONDITIONS AS SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH 1950s LPs!  THIS MAY BE A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO UPGRADE YOUR EXISTING COPY IF YOU HAVE ONE!

SOME COLLECTORS MAY NOT KNOW THAT IN THE 1950s MOST LPs WERE EXPENSIVE(USUALLY FIVE TIMES THE PRICE OF SINGLES)WITH THE MAJORITY ONLY HAVING SMALL PRINT RUNS AND MINIMAL SALES-SOME SHOPS ONLY OBTAINING THEM TO SPECIAL ORDER-VERY FEW REMAINED IN PRINT FOR MORE THAN A FEW MONTHS RESULTING IN GENUINE SCARCITY OVER 50 YEARS LATER!

MANY BUYERS WERE STILL STICKING WITH 78s!

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD EXPERTS/DEALERS.

TIME FOR A LITTLE ABOUT ME!

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

I HAVE PLAYED IT TO CHECK FOR ANY FAULTS.

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER COPY-EXAMINE YOURS AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK!

AT WORSE AND IN THE STRICTNESS OF POTENTIAL BUYERS,THE DISC IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. FAR BETTER THAN MOST PEOPLES USE OF THE "NEAR MINT"GRADING BUT IT IS DOWN TO MY STRICT GRADING POLICY.
