Description
Bill Evans “Portrait in Jazz” Riverside Records 1960 first pressing (# RLP 12-291 stereo) in a cardboard sleeve. 1st press stereo deep groove black labels with no "Inc" after "Bill Grauer Productions" at bottom of labels. The record grading is Very Good (VG). The vinyl has its share of marks & scuffs, but they’re mostly superficial as the album plays well with great fidelity. There’s underlying crackling at times and a few intermittent pops, but no skips. The following is on the runout groove (the etchings are faint on the runout so I tried my best to capture them with the camera, but they are verified):
-
Side A): (etched) RLP 12-1162A
-
Side B): (etched) RLP 12-1162B
The outer case is only Good (G). The covers are both fine - clean & smooth with minimal age wear; VG+. However, both the top seam and spine are 100% split. Fortunately, the bottom seam is intact and in VG+ condition. Of course you could tape or glue the top seam & spine if you wanted to. I did not tape them as I will leave that up to the buyer. (all reflected in the photos). All sales final.
NOTE: This album will ship with the inner sleeve & record OUTSIDE of the cover as to prevent any possible seam damage to the cover during shipment. Both the album cover and the inner sleeve & vinyl will be contained within a plastic protective sleeve inside of the shipping box with padding on top & bottom
