Rolling Stones: "December's Children (and everybody's)"   (MONO)   London LL 3451

This is the 1966 US pressing with bright red labels, on which the London logo appears "boxed". 

This is the prized and sonically superior MONO pressing, not the dreadful sounding "rechanneled stereo" version.

The first half dozen or so Stones' LP's AS MONO PRESSINGS are among my all time favorite albums.  I love this record!  I have multiple copies and so am letting this one go as I have another on the shelf.     ;-)

Side One matrix # reads:  LL-3451A-1B in the dead wax area.

Side Two matrix # reads:  LL3451B-1A in the dead wax area. 

Vinyl:  EX

The sound quality here is wonderful.  A few light superficial surface marks are present but do not detract from the listening experience, with only faint surface noise ("crackle") audible between some tracks and during a very few quiet passages.  Exceptionally high gloss on this record, now some 50 years old !!!  A really great listen !!!

Labels are bright and clean.  Some light spindle marks seen under bright light.

Jacket:  EX 

Front jacket B&W photo is rich and bright.

Back jacket B&W photo and text are very clear.

Light ring wear present front and back.

Top and bottom seams show modest rub wear ... but no splits.

Spine shows modest rub wear.  Spine print is clearly legible.

This is an superb copy of The Rolling Stones "December's Children" LP, in glorious MONO, as it was recorded and meant to be heard.  A wonderful piece of rock history and a great listen, now some 50 years old !!!  Hoping this one goes to a good home. 

Note:  I have nearly all the early Stones LP's in mono.  I plan to list more in days to come.

My Profile / Policies:

Note:  I've qualified for the "Top Rated Plus" seal from eBay, awarded to sellers who consistently deliver outstanding customer service.

Music is my passion.  I’ve been a collector for more than 50 years and have thousands of records in my personal collection, focused largely on 50’s and 60’s rock ‘n’ roll.  Recently retired, I look to downsize and sell select portions of my collection in hopes of financing future purchases of a few special pieces.  

All records I offer are from my personal collection, each cleaned using my Nitty Gritty Record Cleaning Machine.

All are play graded (not just visually graded), employing Goldmine Price Guide standards.

As I take great care to accurately describe my items, I do not accept returns unless my item description is incorrect.

All records are packaged with the wax outside the jacket (to avoid seam split in transit), enclosed in a plastic sleeve and shipped in robust record mailer boxes via USPS Media Mail, tracking included.

International customers pay shipping costs and duties per the eBay Global Shipping Program guidelines. 

Payment expected within 3 business days of auction closing.
