Powered by eCommercePlayer.com      Art Blakey on a mono LP on the Blue Note Records label entitled Holiday for Skins Volume 1. The LP plays with excellent fidelity, shows mostly full gloss, with occasional light marks. This is the first deep groove pressing with the W. 63rd Street address on the label. The label is partially viewable due to damage from moisture. RVG and 9M are etched in the trail off groove. The LP jacket is damaged on both sides. The front cover shows tears, with black ink filling in wrinkled spots. The back of the album jacket is almost entirely gone due to damage.  Please see the scans and listen to the sound file. 
Please listen to the streaming audio from this actual record by using the ecommerce auction player. 


Domestic Shipping is $4.00 by Media Postal Service. First class postal service delivery time depends on distance (usually less than a week).  Please message me after the auction, if you prefer Priority Mail, which offers delivery in two to three days. Priority rates vary according to the destination.

 

Shipping to EUROPE, ASIA, AND AUSTRALIA via FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIR MAIL is $25 (Sorry that the USPS increased their rates this year!) Delivery time is usually one to two weeks, depending on foreign customs, and each destination. Registered mail is required for any interantional shipments with a value over $100 for buyer and seller protection on Ebay and Paypal. Registered mail costs an additional $12.00 above normal shipping costs.  Packages with four or more records sent to international destinations require Priority Mail due to the weight of the package. USPS charges by weight. Any package over two pounds goes to $34.50, over three pounds to $49.50, and over four pounds to higher rates.

                                             First class international mail service can not track the item after it leaves the United States.

International customers who want insurance and/or tracking must use either registered or global express mail service. (These services are not available with first class postal international mail service.) Registered mail takes a week longer, due to security handling. International registered mail services for one record costs $19.00. Global Express Mail costs approximately $40.00. If the amount is less, I will refund you the difference. After winning a record, please notify me, if you desire these services. I can send you an amended Ebay invoice, with the desired shipping services.

Please submit payment within 7 days of auction ending, or a non-paying bidder alert will be issued and/or relisting of the item may result. Please communicate with me, if there is a delay in payment.

I usually ship within 24 hours of receipt of payment, except for weekends or postal holidays.

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS PLEASE READ! Once a package leaves the US, only the postal service has control over handling or delivery time. Most international shipments are arriving in about a week.

So far, all my shipments have arrived safely. The customer has the option to select insurance for absolute security.

There is a complete audio stream of at least one side of each record on the listing page. Occasionally the audio stream "times out" overseas, limiting the sound, to a brief "clip". If this happens, please email or message me, and I will try to make a correction. Here is my grading system:


NM- = record appears mostly new and uplayed

VG++ = record looks great, may be a few light paper scuffs, plays like new.

VG+ = fairly nice copy, may be a few light marks, occasional tick or pop, but mostly clean sound.

VG = wear, scuffing, light scratches, ticks and pops, but a very playable copy.

VG- many scuffs or groove wear, plays with some noise, but still listenable.

G+ = a playable copy but very very worn, plays with lots of noise

G through G- = wall hanger
