ROCKABILLY 45 LOT: JERRY LEE LEWIS 17 Sun 45s (most mint or near mint), 1 Smash

The following 45s are in almost all in near mint or mint condition; a couple may be VG+ to VG++ with light wear (not scuffed or scratched); the only ones in lesser condition are the  It’ll Be Me side of Sun 286 (VG with some scratches), Sun 1101 (VG) and Smash 2202 (VG to VG+). The first 16 Sun 45s listed here are original pressings from the Sam Phillips era, while Sun 1101 was released after Phillips sold the label to Shelby Singleton. Several come in original Sun sleeves (some sleeves are wrinkled or split; a few sleeves may have writing on one side). One 45 has remains of a sticker on the label; the rest of the labels are clean.

GRADING: LPs, EPs and 45s are graded M (mint), NM (near mint), VG+, VG (very good), VG-, G+, G (good), G-, F (fair), and P (poor).
A VG+ record may have some visible scuffs and light scratches and plays well with little surface noise. Scratches on records graded VG and VG- may be deep enough to feel with your fingernail, or there may be scuffs or scratches throughout that cause surface noise. On records in the G+, G and G- range the level of the music is still above the surface noise caused by scuffs and scratches. Surface noise is as loud as the music on records graded F and louder than the music on P records. P records are likely to be unplayable.
[+ and - denote in-between grades. Grades with a slash in between indicate the condition of Side A/Side B.]


Jackets graded VG+ have only slight wear; jackets graded VG are more worn but still intact unless defects are noted. G jackets show definite damage and F and P jackets are probably falling apart. Splits, markings, cut corners, and other defects will be noted.
