Description:

Up for your consideration is the next in a series of unique records, this one featuring Mack Rice.  As near as I can tell, this item is from 1964.  There are others on the Internet with just the 1019 # from that year.
A few unique things about this item:
Firstly, this item retains the original shine with only a few very, very light marks, grading by sight in normal room light.  I found the two sides to audibly average very close to Near Mint with only a few instances of some very, very light surface noise).  You can assign your own grade based on my detailed comments below.
Secondly, at the time of this listing, NO OTHER COPIES FOUND FOR SALE OUT ON THE INTERNET FOR THIS VERSION!
So this is your chance to own a unique item at a reasonable price. Bid early and often so you don't miss out on this auction!  It is further described below, please take the time to read before bidding.
Please e-mail if questions.

I am using the Goldmine scale of G=Good(1), VG = Very Good(2), VG+ = Very Good Plus(excellent)(3), NM = Near Mint(4) when grading the disc(s).
Here is a summary of the record(s):
Artist: Mack Rice
Title:  My baby, Baby I'm coming home Record:  Black vinyl with the original shine and a few very, very light marks grading by sight in normal room light. Labels:  White with black/gray print (see scan).  No stickers.  No pen/pencil marks.  Slight ring wear.     Trailing wax:  Side 1:  LU-7621-4 AT W  Side 2: LU-7622-4 AT W  Sleeve:  A generic sleeve will be included.

Comments:  I found the two sides to audibly average very close to Near Mint with only some scattered very, very light surface noise.  You can assign your own grade based on my comments below.  A great addition to your 45rpm collection. 

Side 1: -- Comments
My baby - (Some scattered very, very light surface noise (3.7)) Side 2: -- Comments Baby I'm coming home - (Some scattered very, very light surface noise (3.9))
Additional criteria I use when audibly grading records for people: NM(4) = absolutely nothing wrong at all (very rarely happens--I've even opened sealed records and they don't play Near Mint)
3.5-3.9 = very, very light surface noise 3.1-3.4 = very light surface noise, very light pops VG+(3) = up to light pops and light surface noise (below this, one's enjoyment is affected, very subjective) VG(2) = up to medium pops and moderate surface noise G(1) = up to heavy pops and heavy surface noise
