In searching for additional information about this LP, I found an awesome web site, http://wraysshack3tracks.com which provided the following description:

This may be the rarest of all Link LPs.. This was put out by RECORD FACTORY records, a label of Vernon Wray's.  The interesting thing is that there is no listing of the traditional things you'd find on a record.  No liner notes, artist credits, not even an address for the Record Factory.  What you do get is an address to the LINK WRAY INTERNATIONAL FAN CLUB (post office box in Accokeek Maryland), and a publishing credit (Florentine Music) to all the songs. 

The cover of this LP consists of two statues on each side, with the LP info printed in block lettering on the cover.  The back cover has two pictures of Link – one from “yesterday” and one from “today”… The first side of the LP is Link’s greatest from “yesterday”, the second side is Link’s greatest from “today.”

It's my guess that this LP was put out by Link and Vernon with limited distribution, perhaps at a few DC area record shops and sold out of the trunk at gigs.

Guaranteed to be original and authentic.  I do not sell bootlegs or modern reissues.

As with all my records, I offer a complete guarantee of satisfaction.  If not happy, simply return it in same condition for a full refund of purchase price plus one-way postage.

 

Payment methods:  I accept Paypal, and any suitable method of payment.  If you have any questions or do not wish to use Paypal, please feel free to contact me and I am sure we can work something out. 

I pack all records in sturdy cardboard custom LP boxes for safe shipment.
The records are removed from the jackets to protect the cover.
Both the LP and jacket are sandwiched between additional layers of cardboard.

I am happy to combine purchases to minimize shipping cost. 

 

NOTE TO INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS:  I will be glad to hold purchases for up to 30 days upon request and receipt of payment, to allow you to accumulate purchases and combine orders in order to save on shipping.  (First LP costs US $18.50 to ship, additional albums in the same order will ship for an additional $2.50 per disc up to a total of four.).  If ebay overcharges for shipping, I will promptly refund any overpayment and apply your discount.

 

FAST SHIPPING:  If I fail to ship your item within 2 business days of payment receipt, your shipping is free!

 

Check my feedback, and bid with confidence.  I am dedicated to providing you the finest and rarest records to assist in your collecting. 

 

If you have any questions concerning this listing, please contact me through eBay’s “Ask A Question” or “Contact Member” options.

 

 

PLANNING A VISIT TO THE BALTIMORE/WASHINGTON AREA?

 

 If so, please consider a visit to my booth (Booth 002, down stairs) at the ANTIQUE DEPOT antique mall in historic ELLICOTT CITY, MARYLAND (3720 Maryland Avenue, just off Main Street at the north end of town – open every day of the year except Christmas and Thanksgiving) for some excellent bargain-priced LPs and 45’s. 

 

Also, I regularly set up at the monthly ARBUTUS RECORD & TAPE EXPO at the Arbutus Fire Hall on Southwestern Boulevard, Baltimore ~ usually held on the 3rd Sunday – but it’s always good to check and confirm).  If you let me know ahead of time of your interests, I will do my best to bring a few extra goodies for your consideration.

 

Thank you for viewing my auction, and good luck with your bids!
