Description
This is Los Angeles folk rock group The Turtles singing "Happy Together" on White Whale 244 from October of 1966 (delta numbers 63588) and January of 1967 (delta number 64971 etched in the dead wax). This # 1 chart record looks to be a strong VG++ with very minor surface markings but plays in NM condition and comes in a White Whale Records company sleeve. There are two picture sleeves. The picture sleeve with Turtles in blue lettering is a company picture sleeve and is VG+ with sticker stain and minor wrinkling. The picture sleeve with Turtles in green lettering is a custom sleeve made in Canada or England and is in MINT condition. This sleeve is a one-off sleeve that was not mass produced. All of this comes in a clear, resealable, poly-vinyl protective sleeve with a cardboard backer separating the record from the picture sleeves. The company picture sleeve is fairly scarce. This is the only one I've seen in 40 years and there is no current sales history on eBay. Price guides suggest a valuation of $125 for this picture sleeve. Due to its VG+ condition you can acquire this record and both picture sleeves for half that valuation.
U.S. postage and handling is $4.00 on this item. International customers should email me first for a shipping quote.
I grade in direct sunlight or under a high intensity lamp to assure the most accurate grading possible. However, you have my unconditional guarantee that I will take the records back if you think that the records are not as stated. My reputation is what has kept me in business for 43 years.
If you win multiple auctions, I will combine packaging to save you as much postage as possible. I ship with sturdy cardboard packaging to protect your records. Please review my feedback from previously satisfied customers. I have been buying and selling records for 43 years now and as of February 2022 I am celebrating 23 years on eBay.
