Thank you for your consideration.

    A word on PROMOTIONAL COPIES:  LP promotional copies in most cases came from FIRST PRESSINGS and usually pulled from the front of the press run.  First pressings, which come as close to the original master disc as possible, matter to audiophiles.  Also, cover drills (holes), corner cuts and cover notches were a common way for the record labels to mark and identify non-returnable promo copies given to retail stores (my 40 year career).  Most promo copies were not stamped or labeled "for promotion only".  These marked covers may contain the best vinyl you can find.
