NOTES: 9 USED Records.

I have no way to play test these.

 Based on care taken by the original owner in storing and cataloging of the albums,

 AND on my visual grading, i think they should all play.

If you need an extra photo or two of any record, please message me.

 

All 9 may show some scuffs and fingerprints, maybe a little dust, 

No deep scratches or cracks.

PLEASE See NOTES above and photos 6, 9, 10, regarding 2 small edge chips.

 

I purchased them used at a very clean Estate Sale.

The Album holds all 4 of the records in individual pockets/sleeves.

Some shelf wear to album cover.

All internal sleeves intact and clean.

The 5 extra records will come separately wrapped in their own paper sleeves.


I hope you will be pleased.


I am pricing these pretty low to allow for any flaws I may have missed.

A copy of Blue Skies/Royal Garden Blues sold on ebay recently for $22.


These are well-cared-for Records from my personal collection.

Time for me to thin out the collection a bit.

They have been stored upright in a dry environment.

From a pet-free, smoke-free home.


They will be shipped well-protected in an over-sized box with lots of padding.

Shipping weight is around 6 pounds.
