Thank you for viewing my auctions. Most of the albums you will be viewing are from my 50+ year old collection and are original issues. Sometimes I include albums given to me or purchased from friends or relatives. I do not go to swap meets, garage sales, or thrift stores. I do go to record conventions as time permits. You will be bidding for original issue, quality albums. Sometime I will list rare re-issues and the will be stated as (re) in the listing. I use Goldmine Standard Catalog as a grading guideline and tend to get somewhat conservative in my approach. I ship worldwide and will accept Paypal, Cashier's check, Money order or personal check and will ship on day of settlement. Due to the value of my collection, I will help save you shipping fees. I use a special album box for shipping. Albums will have clear covers with new inserts. Thank you for your interest. I hope the information will be of value to you. Good luck bidding!

From my personal collection, you are bidding for a mega rare first pressing of Little Anthony and the Imperials on the End label 303, with the dogs. The deadwax area reads GLP 303A and date 1/10/59. The flipside reads GLP 303B and the date 1/10/59. This is a first pressing. The thick and very colorful album cover is in excellent condition. There is no tape, discoloration, tears, ringware or scuff marks anywhere. There is a repairable seam split in the bottom part of the album. A very nice display cover. The thick glossy record is stunning to look at and the grey labels show no scars, just expected needle marks from normal use. I inspected the record under the light and did not see any scuff marks or scratches, only light surface or line marks, again from normal use. When played, the record sounded as if near new. No sticks, pops, loud hisses or skips. Just a great listening experience from this legend. The songs include; Tears On My Pillow, Over The Rainbow, Cha Cha Henry, The Diary, Oh Yeah, Two People In The World. Side 2; When You Wish Upon A Star, Wishful Thinking, So Much, Traveling Stranger, What Did I Do, Love Is A Many Splendored Thing. This is a winner for the serious collector and will be appreciated. On Goldmine's standards, the album is graded VG+, the quality of the music NM and the record a strong VG++. There is no reserve.
