What I’m offering is a RARE promo-only picture sleeve EP of a Levi Strauss & Co. Salesman’s Record issued in 1968. This is the revised edition from 1968, which oddly enough, seems to be exactly the same as the original edition from 1968 except that the tracks are in a different order 
This record was issued to radio stations to promote Levi's jeans and was never available for sale to the general public. 
The record contains five psychedelic-tinged jingles, complete with sitar on a couple of tracks, that promoted their current lines of Levi’s jeans and slacks. Supposedly, the five jingles on the record were recorded by local San Francisco (the home of Levi’s) area musicians. There was a 1967 Levi’s jingle which featured the San Francisco-based Jefferson Airplane but they are not on this one. The musicians on this particular record are unknown (to me at least) and were unfortunately not quite the caliber of the Jefferson Airplane, though they do a very credible job in their own right. Quite enjoyable. 
The grading on the record is VG sleeve, NM record. 
The picture sleeve, which is usually not included when this record comes up for sale, has moderate staining, foxing/ discoloration, bends/ light creases in the corners, handling marks, and a few small, ½ inch or less tears on the top and on the bottom seam. 
The record is in solid NM condition with no scuffs or scratches. 
The 45 is a nice quiet copy with no underlying background noise during playback. 
NOTE: Sorry I cannot provide sound files, but all five jingles can be found on YouTube or Discogs if you are unfamiliar with them. 
Be sure to check out the other records that I am currently selling on Ebay. I always adjust shipping costs on multiple wins. 
Email me if you have any questions. I have been selling records since 1989 so you can rest assured that my grading is thorough and accurate. So bid with confidence. 
To prevent any splits to the picture sleeve, I will be shipping the 45 inside of a plain white sleeve along with the picture sleeve. 
The item will be mailed out in a custom 45 record mailer to prevent damage during shipping. 
Payment expected within 3 days.
