This is part of a larger auction of original, 1950's-era blues, doo-wop & R&B 45's. For this round, the focus is on smaller labels like Ace, Baton, Ember, Aladdin and more.  There are several nice rarities and a handful of bonus listings of records on *really* small labels.  
Here's the info on this item:

Release: The Counts - Hot Tamales / Baby Don't You Know

Format: 45 rpm 7" single

Year: 1954

Notes: Maroon label 1st pressing. Early single by this Indianapolis group who was previously known as the 5 Diamonds. This one has two R&B leaning doo-wop tracks. Hot Tamales has some smooth soul sounds as well, good stuff!

Vinyl Condition: VG+, vinyl is very clean with almost no cosmetic wear at all. It has been play tested and plays great with no pops or skips, minimal to no background noise. Sound is fantastic. Labels are nice and clean as well with just some very light scuffing. No writing, tears or stickers.  Very nice copy of this one.

Sleeve Condition: VG+, Original company sleeve has some light wrinkling and a small pencil number in the corner.  No tears or splits though. Displays quite nicely. 

I want buying from me to be a good experience for you. I also know that condition can be very subjective, so I encourage you to see pics for exact condition details and ask questions if you need additional information. As always, the item you see is the one you will get. Please see my feedback, I think that will show that I am an accurate and fair grader and make sure my customers are happy.

I will combine shipping for anyone who wins more than one item.  If you do need combined shipping, please wait for an invoice before paying.
