Description
This is the VERY SCARCE RED VINYL first pressing 45 of "That's My Desire / Hurry Home Baby" by The Flamingos on the yellow and black Chance label (CH-1140) from 1953. I have both visually and play graded this record, and the condition of the A-side is VG- due to a small feelable scratch that plays through without skipping and only a few minor pops. The B-side is VG+ due to some slight scuffing that doesn't detract from the sound quality. The labels can be seen in the scans I've provided. I purchased this record as a part of a large collection of original early 50's R&B 45s many years ago, and it has been in my collection ever since. This is a great opportunity to add this true rarity to your collection, so don't let this one get away! The record will be mailed in a professional cardboard record mailer to assure no damage during shipping, but insurance is recommended as a safeguard. If you have any questions regarding this, or any of my other items, feel free to contact me. Thank you, The Groovy Guru.
My grading system is as follows:
Mint: The vinyl must look truly unplayed.
NM: The Vinyl looks virtually flawless, being perhaps played a few times. A barely visible scuff may be permitted, but no scratches.
NM-: Pretty much the same as NM, but a non-feelable and barely noticeable scratch may be permitted.
VG++: Still very minor surface wear, with very minor scratch(es) or scuff(s).
VG+: Still a good luster and shine. The difference between VG++ and VG+ is the amount of scuffs and light scratches.
VG: Decent luster and shine still, with more noticable scratches than VG+, but still overall a decent record.
VG-: Luster and shine will sometimes start to become less prominent at VG- and below, as well as prominent scratches and scuffs.
G+: Vinyl will be show several scratches and scuffs.
G: There is little difference between a G+ and a G record. The main difference being that a Good record may skip or stick in a few places. A record at this grade is being sold because of its extreme rarity, and should be considered filler for your collection until another copy comes along.
