Welcome to my auctions....check out the other vinyl listed, more added each week and follow me so you don't miss out.
My
dad was a private collector, he collected thousands and thousands of
records from 1950's to early 2000's, many are rarities, obscurities and
some are unique, I am not a dealer, just selling the collection now he
is unable to do so himself.
You can
expect great service/fast dispatch/super strong packaging/combined
shipping and honest, no nonsense gradings BUT Please read descriptions.

Side 1 has a couple of small scratches (non feeling), a handful of very faint surface marks and a very faint small needle mark. Side 2 has a few small scratches (non feeling) and a couple of whispy hairlines, apart from that there are some extremely light and faint sleeve removal marks under strong
artificial light...Still has a Really Great Shine. A Great Example, Playtested fully below.
PLAYTESTED and it plays all the way through with no jumps, sticks or skips. Audio is Strong and Vibrant with no lessening in sound quality. It plays with some static in the quiet parts and the odd click here and there. There is a click each rotation side 1 at the end of track 2 and start of track 3 due to one of the small scratches. A Great Listen if you dont mind a bit of static and a few clicks. It has been stored for 50+ years so will benefit from a proper clean.
Labels are clean with no wear or damage, signs of being played under strong light (spiders
legs)...see photos
