LIGHTNIN’ HOPKINS Folkways Records FS 3822 ’59 Blues Orig LP NM OG NO RESERVE! . Condition is NM. Shipped for FREE with USPS Priority Mail covering first $50 in insurance.  I would humbly suggest adding additional insurance if this record ends at higher amount. 
After 25 plus years of collecting music on all media formats I have decided to sell the Crown Jewels.  I now realize that many of these LPs became ‘prestige’ pieces that have sat on shelves collecting dust, figuratively speaking.   I have not played most of these Records as in most cases I would have a reissue player copy or second copy. 
This is the only original copy of this record I own.  It’s in immaculate condition regardless of age.  Though it’s an original condition from 1959!  I doubt you will find a better copy.  Seriously.  Saw one recently listed for auction  that was in shrink with insert like this one but cover still had more visible wear and LP was not NM.  Finished well over $300. Save for a few barely noticeable whispy marks, probably from original paper sleeve this LP  would be Mint. I have stored LP in Mofi sleeve since late 90’s early 2000’s.  Has not been played recently if ever.  Bought at Pocono’s Blues Fest in early to mid 90’s.  I remember because I had one of those life altering conversations with the vendor named Lenny from WV selling all of his blues collection out of the back of a gloriously used F150 from lord knows when.   Cover is beyond VG+ probably NM if not for few blemishes as pictured.  No splits or major issues at all.  Insert is NM  This is the 1959 original issue as indicated in discogs overview link below. Absolutely a pillar LP in the blues canon.

Offered to discerning collectors at no reserve and insanely low starting bid.  I will be listing a lot of rare LPs and some CD sets across many genres over the next few weeks and months to come.  Slowing selling off massive collection that at this point I have come to realize has been largely just glanced at.  Bid with confidence.  See my seller feedback.  I don’t sell often ...but when I do it’s always quality items and service to match.  Do not fear ..I realize the value of these records and package accordingly. See feedback in specific regards to the care I take to make sure you’re delivered what was promised. I can’t include pictures of the oversized mailers I use as I maxed out the allotted number of the record and cover.  I only handled and photographed any record listed with gloves on.  Please excuse any glare or mirror images of me photographing / chandelier above table I took pictures on.  Email with any questions.  I aim to please & hope these records find a happy new home. Thank you kindly for your interest.
