Up for auction is my original red/plum Atlantic Mono LP pressing of The Clown by Charles Mingus. The LP and the labels are absolutely Near Mint visually and plays Near Mint. The outer sleeve is Near Mint. The original inner sleeve is in fantastic NM condition, nice and white, no tears or slits on the edges, one little 1/8 inch tan dot on the bottom of the back panel. The dead wax has early C stampers, shows 11449-C AT on side A, and 11450-C AT with the inverted E on side B as called out by discogs for the first issue. See the photos to see the condition I am describing.
No reserve, just a very reasonable opening bid. I will only ship to the United States, via US Postal Service Media Mail. See the pictures, and my feedback.
