RARE TULSA OKLA GARAGE 45 JERRY WAUGH & SKEPTICS FOR MY OWN/I TOLD HER GOODBYE

$

55

Jerry Waugh & The Skeptics on Thrush Records #1002, "For My Own" b/w ""I Told Her Goodbye," 1965. Labels: minor ring wear (film) on both sides due to what looks like a previous dirty turntable (see pics). There is a small "checkmark" beneath the title on one side as the group installed their own labels to the vinyl, and this copy accidently received a "For My Own" label on BOTH sides, so the checkmark was made (by a previous owner!) to mark the side with "I Told Her Goodbye." Otherwise, orange color is bold, no tears, writing, or other distractions. Vinyl is VG+ -to- VG++, some very light marks but none that can be felt to the touch. I played both sides, and they play-through nicely with no skips or other problems. The songs are available on YouTube.

I WILL BE OFFERING MORE RARE OKLAHOMA GARAGE/ROCKABILLY/TEEN 45s OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS.

A STORY ON THE SKEPTICS IS AVAILABLE IN MY 474-PAGE BOOK, "TULSA BANDS & MUSICIANS, 1955-1975," WITH AN OKLAHOMA 45rpm DISCOGRAPHY, AND IS AVAILABLE ON MY EBAY WEBSITE.

PLEASE NOTE MY VISUAL RECORD GRADING SCALE:

SS (Still Sealed): Unopened, still in original shrink-wrap in original condition unless noted differently.

Mint: I do not use this grade.

NM or M- (Near Mint or Mint Minus): Almost as produced except for superficial things like paper sleeve rubs or light handling. Label will have full gloss and color as produced.

VG++ (Very Good Plus-Plus): A well-cared-for record, but the vinyl will display a few noticeable imperfections such as a few light marks or scuffs that cannot be felt to the touch. Label will also have some color and/or gloss fading or light wear; any other distractions will be noted in the label description.

VG+ (Very Good Plus): Still a well-cared-for record, vinyl has a few more noticeable imperfections than VG++ that cannot be felt to the touch. May display some original gloss. Label can show some, but not large, areas of wear; any other distractions will be noted in the label description. NOTE: this is still a very acceptable grade for most collectors.

VG (Very Good): A used but still reasonable copy. Vinyl will have several moderate and/or one or two major flaws such as scratches that can be felt to the touch, but the record will play through with some ticks and possibly other surface noise, nothing that overwhelms the sound. Label gloss may be completely gone, color fading, moderate wear, any other distractions will be noted in the label description.

VG- (Very Good Minus): Vinyl will have some major imperfections along with visible groove wear but will still play through. Label will have heavy wear, no gloss, color faded, any other distractions will be noted in the label description.

FR/PR (Fair/Poor):  A record with major problem(s). I usually do not list records in these grades unless it is a very scarce/rare record that is highly sought-after. Such a record’s condition, along with its flaws, will be described in detail.
