Description
I am downsizing my classic rock collection and will be selling a number of my LP's over the next couple of weeks. Up for auction is a first pressing from the Santa Maria pressing plant, ABC Records Steely Dan, "Can't Buy a Thrill" produced in 1972. My main goal was to collect Near Mint versions of original vinyl for my rock collection, I wanted the same for the outer and inner sleeves as well, but the main priority was to to get the best quality vinyl as possible for the best audio quality, and also to get the best versions. As far as condition goes, the outer sleeve is in Excellent condition, I would have liked to call it Near Mint, but there is some bumping and rubbing at the base of the spine with about a 1/8" spot where the color has been rubbed off and a 1/8" tear to the group photo that on the inside of the cover. I am going to give a Fair rating for the inner sleeve, the color is all there but there are two large rips on one side. Please see the pictures to see what I am talking about. The vinyl itself is in beautiful near mint condition, no marks or flaws of any kind, and the labels are also near mint. The records play with near mint quality as well, no sonic issues of any kind. The dead wax shows the inscriptions consistent with what is called out by Discogs for the Santa Maria pressing, this is a very early pressing with S1 ABCX-758-A 1A on side 1 and S1 ABCX-758-B 1A on inside 2 in the deadwax. I will only sell to the continental United States, no international shipping. I will send via US Postal Service Media Mail. No reserve, just a very reasonable starting bid.
