Description

Selected titles from the private collection of a music business veteran are now being made available for the first time. Titles offered by this Seller are one-owner and came directly from the pressing plant, record company warehouse, other label reps or record store unless otherwise noted. 

Grading is based on visual inspection.

Album ships in a 2 MIL poly cover sleeve and a 2 MIL poly inner sleeve.

I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.

New and vintage vinyl is hard to grade strictly using eBay’s system because the record and the cover are two different components. Therefore, I call a record new and mint if it is opened but has never been played.  I use the grading category to describe the cover condition.

  • This is a 1966 repress of the stereo version.
  • It was pressed at Jacksonville. The number 4 is to the right of the RIAA logo lower back right.
  • The cosmetic blemishes may be due to a long period of storage. Otherwise, the playing surfaces are clean.
  • This pressing is on the black rainbow Capitol label which has no spindle marks.
  • This copy matches all the criteria under 'Notes' (see below).
  • The paper on board cover has tight seams and has a corner bump and 2 corner splits.
  • The inner sleeve is generic white paper. I have included a soft poly inner sleeve.
  • This is a one-owner that the Seller got new back in the day. It has been in storage for 50 years.
