Catalogue Number

Up for bid - an absolutely mint copy of The Fascinators "Fried Chicken and Macaroni" backed with "Oh Rose Marie." It sounds superb!
This 45 was once part of a radio station record collection in Louisville, Kentucky. It comes complete, with a heavy kraft paper 7" sleeve, numbered for filing / retrieval. It also has the two sets of two index cards the radio station used to create playlists, log BMI/ASCAP info and re-file the record.
During a management change in the 1980s, thousands of these records were thrown in a dumpster and were sent off to the landfill. You won't find another of this Fascinators 45 that sounds so good very easily, or very soon.
The vinyl really is in NEAR FLAWLESS condition - this is truly a special copy for your collection. The labels do have radio station writing - the pencil could be erased, but I think it's best to let the record's true history speak for itself.
I've listened to it and it sounds OUTSTANDING - the vinyl looks beautiful. The record has been carefully cared for 43 years.
You owe it to yourself to grab this copy of The Fascinators "Fried Chicken and Macaroni" while you can!
Grades: Record: "M-" - Amazing, amazing condition vinyl for it's age, well cared for. It's 43 years old!
Label: "VG++"
Side 1: Fried Chicked And Macaroni
Side 2: Oh Rose Marie
OUR GRADING SCALE FOR RECORDS:
"Sealed - Mint" (M): When someone says something’s “Mint condition,” this is what they’re talking about. The album is sealed in its original packaging and has never been played. Period.
"Mint" (M-): This is the highest grade for a records that has been played. The album is in excellent condition and shows no visible signs of wear or damage that will affect sound quality. Perhaps a very slight pop or tick, but almost perfect.
"VG++": The condition is very good, but there may be slight ring or cover wear, the cover may have minor seam splitting or the vinyl may have light visual marks. There could be slight surface sound.
"VG+": The LP vinyl may have light scratches or other visual blemishes, but should play through without skipping or repeating. Light surface noise and/or crackle may be present. Covers may have moderate ring and/or edge wear, cut-outs / hole punches, or a moderate seam split. We only sell this grade when it's a rare record - otherwise, these go to the thrift store!
"Good" and below: We consider any item graded at or below "Good" as something you don't want and we won't offer! The sound quality is low and the cover may be in very poor shape. We only offer albums rated VG and above unless a record is so rare that its presence in the collection transcends the poor quality of the vinyl or cover.
Note: Our grading system is not based on the Goldmine system. If you have any questions about the grading of a specific item, please don't hesitate to ask.
I grade these LPs under a 100w halogen light.
Payments: Must be made via PayPal. Required within 3 days from end of auction.
Shipping: In the US, I ship through USPS media mail. (Please note that media mail can take 2-9 business days.) Delivery confirmation and tracking is included (U.S. only).
I will carefully pack your LP in a special LP corrugated mailer and inside a new poly sleeve. I always remove the disc from the jacket to avoid seam splitting. You will be pleased with the shipping!
Worldwide, I ship either USPS First Class or USPS Priority Mail. Import duties, taxes and fees are the responsibility of the buyer. I will not list a lower sales price on the customs form, and I will not list merchandise as a "gift," so do not ask. I always package my items carefully to ensure their safe journey to you. However, I cannot be held responsible for items lost or damaged in transit. I ship it, I can prove it and the rest is up to your country's postal service.
Return Policy: No returns. I do my best to describe all items as accurately as possible. This is a used, 50+ year old LP, and while it is in great condition, it is not and can not be perfect.
