Cover is EX+
Vivid, bright, extremely clean cover has very faintest partial ring impression. No wear, soil, writing or marks. Spine has a very light touch of wear. Seams are 100% intact with no wear. No splits. All edges straight, all corners sharp.

This is the 1975 reissue of Phil Spector's original 1963 Christmas album on Philles, which was only released in mono.

This issue, on Phil Spector's own PHIL SPECTOR INTERNATIONAL label, is the FIRST TRUE STEREO issue; with Spector himself overseeing the mix and mastering, to ensure the correct balance and punch for his amazing "wall of sound". We all know what a fastidious stickler for perfection Phil was -and this pressing sounds awesome.
.
The only re-issue before this one was the Apple Records issue in 1972 and it was in MONO initially, with a later, inferior stereo mix eventually.
Phil wasn't happy with any mix from Apple, so he issued this LP in the UK -on superb vinyl, and on "Warner-Spector" in the USA, within a few months of each other.

All records packed with vinyl (inside inner sleeve) behind cover - and shipped in strong cardboard  LP mailers with bubble wrap around all sides - between stiff cardboard flats for best protection in the mail.
 
Please note that these important supplies add to my shipping costs - only a very small amount of which goes into the shipping charge.
My LP packing is considered to be among the very best on eBay. I would have it no other way.


SHIPPING RATES:
USA: Media Mail: $4.00 ... or Priority Mail: $8.00. Most of my customers prefer Media Mail because it is very cheap. Please keep in mind that it's cheap because it is SLOW. I have had Media Mail boxes take a month to travel 30 miles and in excess of two months to travel cross-country. Sometimes it can arrive cross-country in 5 days. Due to Postal Service conditions, the actual arrival time cannot be known in advance.
Additional LPs in same shipment: $1.00 each. Combine buys to save on shipping.

ALL OTHER COUNTRIES: I charge only EXACT POSTAGE, Worldwide.
*PLEASE do not ask me to mark the item as a 'GIFT' for customs. I cannot. The postal clerks know better; I ship LPs constantly (over 30 years) and cannot fool them.

The sadly necessary ITALY, RUSSIA, BRAZIL SHIPPING NOTE:
If you are in ITALY, RUSSIA or BRAZIL, you are completely welcome to bid and buy here.
Just be aware that your countries' postal / customs services may slow things down. THIS WILL NOT BE MY FAULT.

I ship as soon as I receive cleared payment and treat ALL my customers and their records with the greatest respect.
(in 'shipping details' I state '2 days handling/dispatch time' ...in case life gets in the way. The actual ship-out time will usually be quicker.)
I package the LPs to survive even the worst conditions the postal systems can hand out.
You will LOVE my LP packing!

*If you want a price for double-boxing or any special services, send me an eMail letting me know your needs. Use jeffhelwig at sbcglobal dot net.

NOTE: eBay has recently decided to send automatic "payment reminders" to buyers. I'm uncomfortable with the idea that someone is getting an email from me that I didn't write, yet eBay makes it impossible to defeat that feature. Please be aware that those extra emails are not coming from me, but from a computer somewhere in a dark room at eBay Towers.

Bid to win, but please do not bid if you do not plan to pay!
Lets keep eBay rockin' for us all!

HAPPY BIDDING - and please see my other auctions for more Collectible and cool Christmas LPs.
