Description
If payment is not remitted within 48 hours of closing, winner will forfeit auction.
For yr Christmastime perusal I offer a traditional No Reserve auction. Listing approx. 25 titles from my personal collection.
Personal detail:
I am orig. owner of each title, purchased when I was an undergrad at Indiana University at Bloomington, 1991-95. I worked at the student radio station, WIUS, eventually becoming Program Director at the height of the influence of college radio, and was also an avid record collector. All that is on offer has been stored in corrugated cardboard LP boxes for 30 years, and stored in a furnished and climate-controlled basement. Titles have not been handled or played on a turntable since I graduated in May, 1995. Time to let 'em go. I took excellent care of the disks and sleeves when new, and always played them on a well-regulated turntable. No 'party records' here. I did not live in a frat house. Always stored upright in corrugated cardboard LP boxes after each audition.
Goldmine magazine standard grading, as follows:
