Description
Thelonious Monk, Alone in San Francisco, on Riverside 312. Original deep-groove, mono copy has full gloss, just a couple of very light marks/paper scuffs, super-clean overall, strong VG+ shape, plays great, still in original rice paper sleeve. Outer cover is very nice, with light aging front and back, and the letter "D" stamped small in the upper right corner of the back (probably the price code of whatever store sold it, as this record was likely never shrink-wrapped. Seams are worn, with a three-inch split at upper right and a 1/4" split at the top left corner. just the very beginnings of a split at lower right. Nice package, great disk (and an important disk to have in clean shape, as it's one of the quieter jazz records of its era).
I am currently selling a very nice batch of 50s and 60s jazz originals in great shape, so check my other auctions.
GRADING
M- A flawless or nearly flawless record that appears to have seen little or no play.
VG+ Full gloss, some light marks. A very, very attractive record that has seen limited play and has been well cared for.
VG More marks and scratches, will have some surface noise, but still a playable record. Scratches may be fairly numerous, but will be light.
VG- Lots of marks and scratches but no gouges or major problems.
G+ and G Heavy wear and marks, plays through okay.
