RARE TEXAS TEEN ROCK 45: CROME DOME JEROME and THE TOPPERS: Guilty Kisses/Somebody Shot Me Out of the Saddle, BLAP 2311-4. VG++/NM.  *HEAR*

This 45 came from a collector who bought records as a teenager from local stores in Los Angeles in the 1950s; most are original first pressings. Many of them have stickers or writing on the labels (see photos). The collection also includes early 1960s promotional jazz and R&B 45s sent to (but not played by) a San Antonio pop radio station.

Those graded VG+ or better are clean and glossy with only faint scuffs or blemishes, if any.

See grading codes below. See photos for label damage, markings, stickers, etc.
Combined shipping available on multiple purchases.

GRADING: LPs, EPs and 45s are graded M (mint), NM (near mint), VG+, VG (very good), VG-, G+, G (good), G-, F (fair), and P (poor).

A VG+ record may have some visible scuffs and light scratches and plays well with little surface noise. Scratches on records graded VG and VG- may be deep enough to feel with your fingernail, or there may be scuffs or scratches throughout that cause surface noise. On records in the G+, G and G- range the level of the music is still above the surface noise caused by scuffs and scratches. Surface noise is as loud as the music on records graded F and louder than the music on P records. P records are likely to be unplayable.

[+ and - denote in-between grades. Grades with a slash in between indicate the condition of Side A/Side B.]

Jackets graded VG+ have only slight wear; jackets graded VG are more worn but still intact unless defects are noted. G jackets show definite damage and F and P jackets are probably falling apart. Splits, markings, cut corners, and other defects will be noted or shown in the photos with this listing.
