Hello and thanks for looking.
I am going to list some of my best jazz records, please see my other listings for more from my collection. I have some really nice and rare items in top condition, including lots of Blue Note, Sun Ra etc.
ANTHONY WILLIAMS - SPRING BLUE NOTE ORIGINAL US MONO 1st PRESS VINYL LP 4216 EAR
I use the record collector grading system of Bad / Poor / Good (G) / Very Good / Excellent / Mint.
I also use a + or a - for grades that I consider slightly better or worse.
