THANK YOU FOR VIEWING MY AUCTIONS, AND FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION,  YOU ARE BIDDING FOR A VERY NICE ORIGINAL PRESSING OF THE CHANTELS AND RECORDED IN 1958 ON THE END LABEL LP-301 IN HIGH FIDELITY. THIS IS THE LIGHT GREY LABEL WITH THE DOGS, PLUS THE VERY IMPORTANT NOVEMBER 14, 1958 DATE IN THE DEADWAX AREA. THIS ALBUMS LISTS FOR $400.00+ NM IN THE LATEST GOLDMINE. THE THICK ALBUM COVER IS EXCELLENT CONDITION FOR IT'S AGE. THERE ARE NO SEAM SPLITS, TAPE, WRITING OR SCUFFS AND ONLY A FAINT AMOUNT OF RINGWEAR BARELY EVIDENT. THE SAME APPLYS TO THE BACK REGARDING SLIGHT DISCOLORATION.  THE ALBUM WILL DISPLAY WELL AND THE LINER NOTES ARE NICE. THE THICK DEEP GROOVE RECORD HAS MAINTAINED MUCH OF IT'S SHINY GLOSS AND THE LABELS ARE NICE. THERE IS A SMALL TWO LETTER INITIAL ON THE LABEL SIDE 2 THAT CAN BE REMOVED. I PLAYED THE RECORD JUST PRIOR TO LISTING AND THERE WERE NO SKIPS OR STICKS, ONLY A FEW LIGHT POPS AND HISSES. THE OVERALL LISTENING EXPERIENCE WAS EXCELLENT. THE CONDITION AND RARITY OF THIS ALBUM PUTS IT INTO THE INVESTMENT GRADE CATEGORY AND BASED ON GOLDMINE'S GRADING GUIDELINES, THE ALBUM IS GRADED VG+ AND THE RECORD VG+. THERE IS N0 RESERVE. 

SIDE 1; MAYBE, THE PLEA, COME MY LITTLE BABY, CONGRATULATIONS, PRAYEE, HE'S GONE. SIDE 2; I LOVE YOU SO, EVERY NIGHT, WHOEVER YOU ARE, HOW COULD YOU CALL IT OFF, SURE OF LOVE, IF YOU TRY.   

I WILL ACCEPT PAYPAL, CASHIER'S CHECK, MONEY ORDER OR PERSONAL CHECK AND WILL SHIP ON DAY OF SETTLEMENT. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME. PLEASE VIEW MY FEEDBACK, GOOD LUCK AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

GRADING!

GRADING IS BASED ON GOLDMINE'S GRADING SYSTEM. I AM CONSERVATIVE WHEN GRADING MY ALBUMS AND I TRY TO BE OBJECTIVE IN DOING SO. MOST OF THE ALBUMS OFFERED FOR BID COME FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION WHILE OTHERS COME FROM OTHER COLLECTIONS AND ESTATES. NONE COME FROM GARAGE SALES OR SWAP MEETS.

MINT: (M);  ABSOLUTELY PERFECT IN EVERY WAY. CERTAINLY NEVER PLAYED AND PERHAPS STILL IN THE ORIGINAL WRAPPING.

NEAR MINT: (NM);  A NEARLY PERFECT RECORD AND ALBUM COVER. THE RECORD SHOULD SHOW NO OBVIOUS SIGNS OF WEAR. THE ALBUM COVER SHOULD HAVE NO CREASES, FOLDS, SEAM SPLITS, WRITING, TAPE OR OTHER NOTICEABLE DEFECTS, INCLUDING CUT-OUT HOLES. BASICALLY, AN ALBUM IN NEAR MINT CONDITION SHOULD LOOK AS IF IT WAS JUST PURCHASED FROM A RECORD STORE AND REMOVED FROM THE ORIGINAL WRAPPING.

VERY GOOD+: (VG+);  A VERY GOOD PLUS WILL SHOW SOME SIGNS OF USE AND THAT IT WAS PLAYED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER WHO TOOK CARE OF IT. RECORD SURFACES MAY SHOW SOME SIGNS OF WEAR AND ALSO MAY HAVE SOME SLIGHT SCUFFS OR SCRATCHES THAT DO NOT AFFECT ONE'S LISTENING EXPERIENCE. SLIGHT WARPS THAT DO NOT AFFECT THE SOUND IS OK. THE LABELS MAY HAVE SOME RINGWEAR OR DISCOLORATION, BUT THEY SHOULD BARELY BE NOTICEABLE. THE CENTER HOLE WILL NOT BE MISSHAPEN BY REPEATED PLAY. THE ALBUM COVER MAY HAVE SLIGHT SIGNS OF WEAR AND ALSO MAY BE MARRED BY A CUT-OUT HOLE, INDENTATION OR CORNER INDICATING IT WAS TAKEN OUT OF PRINT. A VERY GOOD PLUS RECORD IS HIGHLY ACCEPTABLE AND DESIRABLE.

VERY GOOD (VG):  SURFACE NOISE WILL BE EVIDENT UPON PLAYING, ESPECIALLY IN SOFT PASSAGES AND DURING A SONGS INTRO AND FADE. LABELS MAY BE MARRED BY WRITING OR HAVE TAPE OR STICKERS ATTACHED. THE SAME WILL BE TRUE WITH ALBUM COVERS. TAPED SEAMS MAY BE COMMON.

GOOD PLUS: (G+) OR GOOD: (G). I RARELY DEAL WITH THIS CATEGORY.
