PAUL MCCARTNEY & WINGS, BAND ON THE RUN – PURPLE VINYL & WILD LIFE 1ST RELEASE

Here are two Paul McCartney & Wings vinyl LPs.

BAND ON THE RUN: This is the vintage, Holland, purple vinyl release. It’s Apple Record 5C 062-05503. The album jacket is still a solid unit, no split seams and no writing on it, but it does show handling/shelf wear on front, back and spine. This was a “punch-out” album and those holes are obvious in photos 1-3.

WILD LIFE: This is a vintage first run pressing. It's Apple Record SW-3386. The album jacket is still a solid unit, no split seams and no writing on it, but it does show handling/shelf wear on front, back and spine. The spine is pretty tattered but not split open (last pic).

I bought these albums new and understood how to handle and care for vinyl records. These were always stored in a quality V.R.P. after-market dust sleeve. I do not have either album's original dust sleeve.

Both of these records have been properly stored for years. I no longer have a turntable so I cannot vouch for how they play but they both used to play and sound great, so I expect that has not changed - but I make no warranties or guarantees of audio quality - so no returns or refunds with these.

PACKING: Since I am selling several vinyl LP albums on eBay but have never shipped vinyl LPs before, I experimented for a couple of hours with the "sandwich" method of packing, where the record is removed from the album cover and from the dust sleeve and then sandwiched between those two things. Then, the "sandwich" is bubble-wrapped tightly. However, I still could feel things sliding around inside the "sandwich". The sliding seemed minimal but it also seemed no different than when I simply bubble-wrapped the entire album with the record in its dust jacket and in the album cover. So, I will be shipping these records in their dust jackets and in their album covers. They will each be bubble-wrapped tightly to reduce shifting of the record and then placed into a shipping box. If this is NOT how you want these shipped, then I will politely request that you please do not buy them.
