Description
Welcome to my auctions....check out the other vinyl listed, more added each week and follow me so you don't miss out.
My dad was a private collector, he collected thousands and thousands of records from 1950's to early 2000's, many are rarities, obscurities and some are unique, I am not a dealer, just selling the collection now he is unable to do so himself.
You can expect great service/fast dispatch/super strong packaging/combined shipping and honest, no nonsense gradings BUT Please read descriptions.

Side 1 has a handful of scratches (non feeling) and some whispy hairline scuffs. Side 2 has some scratches (non feeling) and some whispy hairline scuffs and a couple of small surface marks, apart from that there are some extremely light and faint sleeve removal marks under strong artificial light...Still has a Great Shine. A Really Nice Example, Playtested fully below.
PLAYTESTED and it plays all the way through with no jumps, sticks or skips. Audio is Strong and Vibrant with no lessening in sound quality. It plays with static in the quiet parts and a few clicks here and there. Side 2 starts with a bit of crackle until the music gets going. A Great Listen if you dont mind a bit of static and a few clicks. It has been stored for 50+ years so will benefit from a proper clean.
Labels are clean with slight wear to raised KT tax code, signs of being played under strong light (spiders legs)...see photos
