Description

ITEM DESCRIPTION:-

Original British 'Demonstration Copy', 7", vinyl, 45 RPM single in original sleeve. 

ARTIST / TITLE / DATE / CAT No / OTHER INFORMATION:-

Martha Reeves and The Vandellas.

I Promise To Wait My Love / Forget Me Not. 1968. Tamla Motown- TMG 657. 

Green and white Motown label. The release date (24.5.68) is printed on both sides, together with the text 'Demonstration Record Not For Sale. There is a large white letter 'A' on side one. The date, 12 MAY 1968 is stamped twice on side one.

This single is not easy to find as a normal issue copy. I would say that a 'demo' copy in this condition, would be a very nice, and rare item to have in your Motown / Soul collection.

CONDITION OF ITEM:- (based on Record Collector Rare Record Price Guide 2008:- 

Vinyl Grading = (EX+). This single appears to be totally unplayed. I have graded this single as EX+, rather than NM, as there is a very minor mark at 12 O'clock on side two, this can only be seen when the record is examined under a strong light source.

You will not need to upgrade this lovely copy.

Please read my Terms and Conditions, before bidding.

GRADING SYSTEM:-

MINT= Item still sealed in original packaging.

NEAR MINT (NM)= The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition.

EXCELLENT (EX)= The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packing might have very slight wear / or creasing. No items below this grading will be offered for sale at the present time.

VERY GOOD (VG)= The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G)= The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

+ or - = Items fall between grades.
