THE CARPENTERS Vinyl   Christmas Portrait    PROMO copy  Wonderful!!!
Christmas Portrait –  single album, played once by me.  PROMOTIONAL COPY and the cutout hole was used to suspend the album in a store display (see pix).

All of these vinyl records are from my personal collection, purchased by me – one owner.  You should know that I treated each of these recordings very carefully.  I ALWAYS handled them on the edges or the center label.  I cleaned each record carefully with Discwasher before play.  These records have been babied.  My habit was to record these records to reel-to-reel or cassette and put the albums themselves away.  All records sold here have been personally inspected by me and I’ve tried to describe them honestly – as if I was the buyer.  Point is, I really took good care of these records: they have been stored upright in a custom-built record cabinet in a smoke-free home since purchase.  I have not played any of them in at least a decade.  They are as is.

I make the assumption that you know that ANY vinyl recording does NOT sound like digital music, that it is an analog/ mechanical sound reproduction system and that random dust particles can be attracted to the grooves, even on straight-from-the-factory records, but certainly on used and played records.  Those particles can be cleaned using a record cleaning system like Discwasher (which I use) which will improve the quality of the sound.  Those particles are not a fault with the vinyl recording.  It's normal.
