BOB DYLAN - FREEWHEELIN' - CBS SBPG 62193
I AM UNABLE TO DECIDE DEFINITIVELY EXACTLY WHEN THIS 'MADE IN ENGLAND' COPY DATES FROM. I'M CONVINCED IT IS EARLY - 1960'S, AND AM CONVINCED IT IS NOT A (MUCH) LATER RE-ISSUE. I BELIEVE IT IS EITHER 1ST ISSUE 1964 OR A LATER 1968 ISSUE
BUT WHICH I CANNOT SAY EXACTLY. MY BEST ESTIMATION, WITH REFERENCES TO SUCH DATA-BASES AS DISCOGS, IS THAT IT IS/COULD BE 1964, BUT I CANNOT SWEAR TO THAT. I HAVE PRESENTED/DRAWN ATTENTION TO ALL THE FACTUAL INFO I CAN EXTRACT FROM THE VINYL AND COVER AND AM SELLING ON THE BASIS THAT THE BUYER REACHES THEIR OWN CONCLUSION FROM THE INFORMATION PROVIDED AND COMPLETES SALE ON THAT BASIS. IF YOU HAVE ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS OR INFORMATION THAT I MAY BE ABLE TO EXTRACT FROM THE SLEEVE OR VINYL PLUS JUST ASK. I DID NOT BUY IT NEW - I DIDN'T BUY MY FIRST RECORD UNTIL AROUND 1968, AND IT WASN'T DYLAN - IT WAS BOUGHT 2ND HAND BUT WHEN/WHERE I CANNOT REMEMBER

ALL VINYL IS VISUALLY GRADED UNLESS REFERRED TO OTHERWISE. IF THERE IS A FAULT ON THE VINYL I WILL TRY TO PHOTO THIS, BUT GETTING LIGHT / SHINE / REFLECTION ANGLES CORRECT FOR A GOOD PHOTO IS OFTEN DIFFICULT. WHILST I AM LISTING SO MANY AT THE MOMENT PLAY-GRADING WHOLE ALBUMS IS NOT POSSIBLE, BUT WHERE THERE IS AN OBVIOUS FAULT (REPORTED IN DESCRIPTION) I WILL PLAY THROUGH THIS AND REPORT IN THE DESCRIPTION.

SLEEVES - OUTER AND INNER - ARE DESCRIBED, AND WHERE POSSIBLE FAULTS ARE SHOWN (OR EXAMPLED IF SEVERAL) BY PHOTO.
ALL PHOTOS IN MY LISTING ARE OF THE ACTUAL COPY I HAVE FOR SALE. ABSOLUTELY NO STOCK PHOTOS USED (so apologies also if my photos are less than 'professionally' crisp)


I AM USING THE UK RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING, AS FOLLOWS:- Mint (M)

The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.
The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condition.
Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent (EX)
The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality.
The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. Very Good (VG)
The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch.
Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable Good (G)
The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches.
The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc
Fair (F)


The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump.
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. Poor (P)
The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc.
The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing

Bad (B)The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.

THIS IS REFELECTED IN THE POSTAGE PRICES, AND MY INSISTENCE ON USING A 'SIGNED FOR' SERVICE FOR DELIVERY. I WILL COMBINE POSTAGE FOR MULTIPLE PURCHASES. UK - + £1.50 PER ADDITIONAL ALBUM OVERSEAS - + £3.00 PER ADDITIONAL ALBUM.
