Description

No international shipping.

VINYL

            Side 1:  plays Mint, visually as close to Mint as you’ll find with one nearly invisible blemish on the high gloss surface. I’m tempted to call this visually Mint.

            Side 2:  plays Mint, visually EX+ with a superficial blemish in cut one, very close to visually Mint-

LABELS

            Side 1:  Mint west coast label with no spindle marks

            Side 2:  same as side 1, no times listed for cuts 1 & 2 making this an early edition L.A. label

COVER

            Front:   solid seams & spine, sharp corners, no ring wear

            Back:   barely a trace or ring wear at bottom, clean white paper, #6 bottom right


INNER:  archival

DESCRIPTION:  It would be hard to find a cleaner first edition stereo west coast LP. The cover is superb and brilliant white, while the vinyl retains all its original gloss and has insignificant blemishes as noted above. Plays Mint.

No international shipping.

I ship once a week, but always within 5 days of your payment. Combined shipping is possible for up to three LPs with a small surcharge for added weight.

Records are shipped in the highest quality LP mailers with the record secured outside of the cover to avoid seam splits.

Please don’t bid if If you own a Crosley or similar inexpensive turntable. LPs that play perfectly on a real turntable may have problems playing correctly on a cheap turntable with no ability to adjust tone arm tracking weight or anti-skid. It will eventually destroy your LPs.

______________________________________________________________

   The records I sell are from my personal collection, including backup copies. I've never been one to buy VG records or anything with an audible scratch, which eliminates the vast majority.

   I use standard US grading plus the UK grade of EX in order to eliminate the dreaded VG++

   Records are first inspected under a halogen light and any blemishes are examined with a 10x power magnifier which allows the grooves to be fully inspected. Then they’re play graded on a Linn Sondek LP12.

   As a record buyer, I've had a lot of over graded “garage sale” LPs arrive covered with gritty dust and greasy fingerprints while the seller claims a “visual” grade based on fantasy. Be assured that my records will arrive clean and fingerprint free.
