Description

Selected titles from the private collection of a music business veteran are now being made available for the first time. Titles offered by this Seller are one-owner and came directly from the pressing plant, record company warehouse, other label reps or record store unless otherwise noted. 

Grading is based on visual inspection.

I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.

New and vintage vinyl is hard to grade strictly using eBay’s system because the record and the cover are two different components. Therefore, I call a record new and mint if it is opened but has never been played.  I use the grading category to describe the cover condition.

  • This is the Test Pressing for the 2017 reissue of the original 1975 release of "Pieces Of The Sky", Emmylou's debut album on Reprise Records.
  • Pressed on December 12, 1916. The dated is printed on the sleeve label.
  • This copy has never been played.
  • It is in a poly-lined paper sleeve.
  • I have included a generic white board cover.
  • This is a one-owner that the Seller got new from Nonesuch Records in 2017.
