1959 Capitol Records PBR-8477. Mono. 

Made in Canada. 

Condition: Sound clips are from the actual discs being offered. Some ticks and pops here and there, but for the most part, plays well and is an enjoyable listen. Not for the mint fanatic, but not bad. The end of the last track on side one has some weird manufacturing pock marks that cause a muffled click on the last rotation of music, and a pop a couple of seconds after the music is done. That particular track is included in its entirety in the sound clips (track #5). The second half of track #17 has a consistent light tick. That track is also included in its entirely in the sound clips. Visually, sides 1, 2 and 4 glossy vg+. Side 3 vg (some long but light surface scuffs I couldn't feel - see last photo - but probably the source of the ticks on track #17). Labels and inside of box stamped "JUL 14 1959". Deep Groove labels. Clean labels. Booklet has writing on corner and bent corners. Discs are in replacement white paper inner sleeves. One of the original Capitol sleeves is in the box, but has edge splits. Box has sticker tears on and around the upper two inches of the spine. Name written on front. One box corner torn. Manufacturing wrinkle on back of box. See photos.
