You are viewing a 12" acetate of rejected and unissued tunes by Marvin Gaye.
There is writing in pen on the label and sleeve that states  "Berry Gordy Jr. does not like the tone content or masters." 
This was dated 10/18/65, which puts it around the same date as Marvin's 'A Tribute To the Great Nat "King" Cole' Lp which was released the following month. 
This acetate had 6 tunes on it, with lavish production, and elegant arrangements similar to those  found on the 'Soulful Moods' and 'Tribute To The Great Nat King Cole' Lp.   As far as I can tell,  these tunes were unreleased?
Song listing:
"I Worry About You" (does not play) "The End Of A Love Affair" (does not play) "I Wish You Love" (does not play) "So In Love" (plays well but hangs up) "Violets For Your Furs" (mostly plays well but hangs up) "Good Bye" (plays well; VG or VG+ sound quality) 


Acetate is in poor condition; I am selling it AS-IS, and I have recorded how it plays on my system, a Technics 1200, with a Shure N447 cartridge, which is very forgiving  on records in poor condition.   Your set-up may not perform the same depending on the  type of cartridge, tonearm, settings, etc. 
the first 3 of the 6 songs on this one-sided acetate are flaking and chipping, and will not play at all. 
The last 3 are very touch-and-go, but still mostly play; 
Track #4 'So In Love' would possibly appeal to fans of the Belgian Popcorn sound.  it plays fairly well, but hangs up during playback.   An edit could be made in order to  preserve this complete track, which to my knowledge and research on the web, has never seen  the light of day.  
Track #5 'Violets For Your Furs' hung up several times as well, but could be mostly  heard, and could be edited together in order to hear or release the complete tune. 
the last track "Good Bye" plays very well from beginning to end.
