John Fahey THE NEW POSSIBILITY: GUITAR SOLI CHRISTMAS ALBUM, Takoma MONO (1968)

$

25

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 probably the rarest version of this classic recording because it is in Mono.
• It appears this was a Mono repress from the same year as the initial stereo release.
• It says 'Monaural' on the bottom of the label but Stereo below the Takoma logo on the upper right front cover.
• This copy has never been played.
• The Promo stamp is on the front cover.
• The textured matte paper on board cover has tight seams and shows no wear.
• The Seller was a distributor for Takoma and got this copy from Takoma when they consummated the distribution agreement in 1968 or 1969.
• This is a one-owner that has been in storage for almost 50 years.
