Original 1955 EmArcy mono in top condition

Record is as-new. Played just once while I was filling out this listing. If there were flaws, this is where I'd say so. And the jacket is like new, ignoring my two library numbers on the back. They don't come in better condition than this.

Jackets are shipped in a protective sleeve

(Used all of the pig but the squeal until Ornette.)

For foreign shipments, if the US Post Office or FedEx will not insure shipments to your country, I'll let you know and you have the option to cancel. If you still want to complete the sale, the risk of loss or damage is yours.

I've been selling collectible vinyl and shellac as Records For Recollectors as a hobby since 1963. The day JFK was shot I was typing my first catalog. I sell original US issues, not re-issues or imports. The vast majority of the surfaces are near mint or mint. My collection of mono LPs mostly date from 1947 through 1961. Scarce obscurities throughout, offered only on ebay. My hearing is shot so it's all for sale now, the best and the rest. NOTE: All my record jackets have my library number on the back, upper right, usually twice. Sorry about that.
You can use ebay's "Ask Seller a Question" to send me a brief vinyl want list. Any I have, I'll sell here. No off-site deals.

Do you like song parodies? Mine are on the web, like "Something Warm freeware." I bet you couldn't picture me the time I went to Newark after dark.

Buyer & seller of rare recordings as Records For Recollectors since 1963

On eBay we sell old records of all types, open reel tapes, art, early radios, my life-long collection of Zenith Trans-Oceanic portables, rare (sometimes very rare) books, US and foreign coins and currency, autographs and photos, rare magazines and ephemera, etc.

Quality items at low volume
We stand behind them 100%
We pack to professional standards
We answer email as soon as we see it

Two guidelines we use:
We don't say it's antique unless we believe it is over 99 years old. The only exceptions are motor vehicles, boats, radios, and phonographs which are ruled by a different convention.

In a collectibles industry filled with frauds and fools we are never the first and seldom the second. Coins, currency, autographs, photos, and all other collectibles we ever sold are backed with a 100% guarantee of authenticity. That includes the item(s) in this auction.

We use to sell books at half.com under the alias "Sobriquet" until
eBay ruined half.com by stealing from the sellers. (Shame on eBay.)
