56

Folk Lyric FL 114, "Peggy Seeger Sings and Plays American Folksongs for Banjo", from about 1962.  Black-label vinyl plays at VG++ to NM with very little background sound. Jacket has solid, strong seams all the way around with no visible wear; there is a negligible bit of corner wear; there is slight rubwear on the front (nothing much) and a small sticker stain at upper right.  Descriptive notes are inside jacket.  Songs are John Riley", "Jesus Born in Bethlehem", "The Mormon Crossing", "Willie Moore", "London Bridge", "Hiram Hubbard", "Edwin in the Lowlands", "'A Walking and a' Talking", "Dandoo", "Handsome Molly", "The Two Sisters", "Weevily Wheat", "Turnip Greens", "Fair Rosamond", "Operar Reel/Devil's Dream", "Betsy's Reel/Buttermilk & Cider", and "Harry Couper/The Old Soldier".  The stamp on the liner notes indicates that the company had just relocated from Baton Rouge to San Francisco.  Shipping is $4.00 media mail, $7.00 priority mail in the continental U.S.; $15.00 airmail for Europe, Australia, Japan, and Korea; elsewhere inquire.  Insured priority shipping required for Italy and Brazil.  Additional LPs in one package are $1.00 per extra LP in U.S. and Canada, $2.00 per extra LP overseas.  All LPs are play-graded unless sealed.  I dislike low-quality packaging as much as any other eBayer.  Individual records will be shipped in special, handcrafted mailers unlike the usual type in three ways: (1) They are significantly larger all around and padded around the edges to prevent corner bumps to the jacket; (2) they are padded on both sides of the record with styro sheets or thick cardboard sheets to prevent damage to the record surface; (3)  they are constructed of heavier-duty cardboard than normal mailers to provide further protection.  All used LPs are shipped with record securely inside an inner sleeve but outside the jacket to prevent seam splitting in transit; our innovative padded packaging will prevent seam splitting for new, sealed LPs.  The end product is designed to withstand a drop from a second-story window with no damage (though I will not test it with your package).  No record should arrive in a condition worse than described!  Multiple LPs are shipped in BagsUnlimited pizza-style boxes that are larger around than LPs and will also be well padded.
