$

125

  Artist: Thelonious Monk
Title:   Himelf
Label:  Riverside RLP 12-235
Mono/Stereo:  Mono
Info:  Very rare factory sealed copy!!  I am the second owner of this, and the good man I bought it from acquired his albums in the 60's and 70's.  Judging by the back cover this is  not a deep groove pressing, and is almost certainly the blue reel to reel or teal colored Orpheum label pressing.  I cannot guarantee what pressing is inside, but I do guarantee you a clean, never been played or opened copy.

*NO RETURNS ACCEPTED IF ITEM HAS BEEN OPENED!!

Cover:  Mint   Still sealed and has no moisture, ring wear, seam damage, or any discoloration.  One small break in the shrink is shown in the photo, otherwise fully sealed.
