Here we have a rare 1956 1st press on uk esquire 32-075.
Extraordinary sound quality considering that the record is 65 years old. There are a few exceptional hairline scratches to both sides which are extremely light and hardly noticeable except under bright light. These do have some sound distortion especially on side one that are very occasional more of a pop and crackle but these do play through and will certainly not affect the sound quality which is still plays loud and clear .Side two has fewer surface marks hairlines and plays very well throughout with the occasional pop and crackle.
The record has retained a high gloss finish but I am sure a professional clean could improve the sound quality which is pretty damn good throughout loud and clear mono sound. Graded as very good + still very enjoyable and in lovely condition for its age and wonderful to listen that you won’t be disappointed
Poly lined inner sleeve is excellent + condition. No Rips or tears.
Outer sleeve has age related marks with browning to the rear and the laminated front sleeve does have some light pealing. In exceptional condition bearing in mind this cover is 65 years old.
The record will be sent signed for only and insured to the value it fetches in auction and will be sent in professional record mailers with two stiffeners,
Remember this is an extremely rare LP and they don’t come up for auction very often. No reserve auction.
