Description
Original, very early 1970s Punch 45 of "Deathhead" and "Rainbow Man." This is on the Raftis-Records label #111 (from Bronx, New York) and it is also a promo!! The vinyl is in beautifully clean, strict VG to VG+ condition with full gloss and it plays quite nicely and LOUD!! There is one very small surface mark on the a-side vinyl that does sound slightly for a few seconds of the song, but it certainly does not skip and is mostly covered up by the loud music. There are a couple light surface marks on the b-side vinyl that do not affect play at all. I played both sides of this record with a regular Stanton stylus (tracked at 1.5 grams). Labels are very bright and attractive also, with only a small old name written lightly in pen at the top of each (see photos).
Please review the photos for additional details. Please scroll below to see my full vinyl and cover/sleeve grading guidelines. Vinyl gradings are visual only, unless I specifically state otherwise. Please also see the other, similar items I currently have listed on Ebay; I do combine shipping.
All of my 45s are shipped in professionally-designed, heavy duty cardboard mailers with extra cardboard padding.
I personally write all of my own titles and descriptions, take all of my own photos, and package all items for mailing myself. I do not use text, photos or information from “other” sources and would certainly never do so without referencing them. Items pictured in any of my listings are always the actual items that buyers will receive from me.
Payment by PAYPAL ONLY....I do not accept any other form of payment. Unless the buyer makes a different arrangement with me (i.e. contacts me directly), payment is expected within three days (72 hours) from the closing date of the item. After three days, an unpaid item case will automatically be opened and the buyer then has four additional days to complete payment (per Ebay's terms).
I am always happy to offer COMBINED SHIPPING for ALL BUYERS for up to one week from the closing date of the initial purchase. Final payment is always expected WITHIN ONE WEEK FROM THE CLOSING DATE OF THE BUYER'S INITIAL PURCHASE. Please don't expect items to be held for more than one week while additional bids are placed. Please try to be considerate of this request when bidding on multiple items on different dates.
Items are normally shipped within 1 to 2 business days from receipt of payment.
My vinyl and cover/sleeve gradings are as follows:
MINT: I do not use this grade except for sealed/unopened items.
NEAR MINT or MINT MINUS: Vinyl looks basically brand new, untouched, unplayed or nearly unplayed. Cover looks pretty much as new with no real flaws to speak of. This is basically how the item would have looked when it was new from the factory.
VG++: Very close to M-, with vinyl showing only the very slightest, most subtle signs of any past handling or play. Cover may show just the barest hint of wear from age, but nothing at all serious or detracting.
VG+: Vinyl shows some subtle signs that it was played in the past, but was generally well taken care of. Cover shows only some minor signs of age or wear, but nothing too detracting.
VG: Vinyl is beginning to show more obvious signs of past handling and play but still has strong sound quality overall. Cover is beginning to show more signs of age and wear, but is fully intact and still displays very well overall.
GOOD: Vinyl has very obvious signs of wear from over the years, but still plays strongly and enjoyably enough. Cover has obvious wear and tear from age, but is intact and still displayable.
***My very good and good records are very good and good, not bad and even worse! I also do not use the EX (excellent) grading at all.***
FAIR: Record wasn’t properly cared for in the past and very clearly shows it, but it is still playable and should be enjoyable enough for some. I rarely offer records in this condition.
