Absolute brilliant MINT vinyl, sleeves and box.

I am the original owner who worked at an indie record store in late 70's /early 80's and spent many a pay check collecting vinyl!

Part of my large private collection of MINT, NEVER PLAYED records which have been stored safely since purchase and kept in a smoke free / pet free environment.

Rest assured the items I am selling are in the condition stated, and most never even hit the shelves of the store I worked in as I would buy straight out of the box and handle with care!

Regarding vinyl, if you would like the item taken out of the jacket cover to avoid any potential seam splits, please advise otherwise item will be packed as is but securely and in most cases should not be an issue with seam splits.

 

PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE PRIOR TO SENDING PAYMENT
