RARE 1ST PRESS ROBERT JOHNSON KING OF THE DELTA BLUES SINGERS DG 6 EYE EX+

$

245

Welcome to my auction!!

You are looking at a 1st pressing of Robert Johnson’s “King of the Delta Blues Singers”. This pressing has the 6Eye Columbia label with Deep Grooves on both sides and NO CBS at the top of the red label. All indicators of a first pressing.

RECORD GRADE (Visual grade/Play grade): The LP is visually graded at EX+. Looks shiny and beautiful with only some minor superficial marks that DNAP. Play grade is EX+ as well. Sounds wonderful.

COVER GRADE: EX The cover is in excellent shape. No seam splits or splits to spine. Some minor wear to top seam and some areas of minor wear on front cover. (See pix).

GRADING SYSTEM:

MINT (M): Sealed record. I will never grade anything as mint unless it is sealed, at which time it is presumed to be mint.

NEAR MINT (NM): Typically my top grade. The record or cover will show the most minimal of wear. The record will have top gloss. The cover will be free from any ring wear, splits, or handwriting.

EXCELLENT (EX): Not quite Near Mint but a super clean, desirable record, showing a few superficial markings on the vinyl that do not affect playability and the cover free of splits, and any major ringwear.

VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+): The record or cover will show signs of wear but no significant defects. There may be superficial markings in greater abundance, potential for minor groove wear. None of the above affecting the playability to any great detriment. Cover may show signs of more significant ringwear, minor splits or seam/spine wear.

VERY GOOD (VG): Obvious signs of wear but the record still has life in it. The scratches will be more feelable resulting in minor pops or clicks. Skipping should not occur though at this grade. The cover will show greater signs of wear, (ringwear, splits, writing).

VERY GOOD MINUS (VG-): The record or cover will show moderate to heavy wear. For a common record this would not be an acceptable grade. For an in-demand, rare record it should be considered. Skips may be present as the feelable scratches will be much more prevalent. The cover will show heavy wear.

GOOD (G): Very heavy wear. This grade would only be acceptable if the record is rare enough that you might not see another copy available for sale or it's a rare record at a low price. I will rarely sell a record at this grade
