Description
Stinson/Folkway Records, "Jungle Calypso" with the Duke of Iron, from about 1954. This heavy 10" LP plays at VG+ with some background hiss that can be ignored at a distance. Stinson recordings were spotty at best even when new. The jacket has strong seams with no wear and has a beautiful front, but the back slick is missing - another frequent Stinson problem. Songs are "Don't Stop the Carnival", "Rookoobay", "Jam Session", "Wild Indian", "Pretty Woman", "Mickey Cipriani", "Duke of the Calypso", and "Potato". Shipping is $4.00 media mail, $8.00 priority mail within the continental U.S.; $16.00 regular airmail to the U.K., Europe, Japan, Korea, Australia, and New Zealand. A few record labels such as Folkways may be slightly more expensive to ship overseas. Additional LPs in a single package are $1.00 additional within U.S. and Canada, $2.00 elsewhere. For overseas shipments, registered mail is strongly recommended at $11.75 extra. Many old records are practically antiques and should be treated that way. This LP will be packaged with the record inside an inner sleeve but outside the jacket; both are placed inside a sealed outer sleeve and shipped inside a special oversized handcrafted mailer with padding on all sides. It is designed thick enough not to be bent in transit and strong enough to withstand a drop from a second-story window. More than two LPs together may be mailed inside a heavy Bags Unlimited pizza-style box. Your LP should arrive in the same condition as on the day it was shipped. All used LPs are play-graded on a VPI turntable with Audioquest tonearm and Grado cartridge.
