Condition:

LP - Very Good Plus - Overall, the record sounds fantastic - a joy to listen to. Soft passages are quiet. We want to point out the audible issues we hear on Side 2.

Side 1 - Excellent

Side 2 - Very Good Plus - There are two fairly minor scuffs that create a few (about 3) pops - we can't tell which scuff is causing the pops. Additionally, there is a very small bubble (about the size of a pin head) in the vinyl that produces a minor thud sound for three or four rotations.

Jacket - Excellent
Cover has previous owner’s notation regarding When / Where / Purchase Price on back and sometimes even inside the lip of the cover - you’ll see this on our photo.

Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions

Special Note
These albums come from a private collector, who meticulously maintained his collection.  He often included a notation on the back of each record cover that indicated Where / When / and sometime How Much he paid for the record.  We find his notes very informative and useful.   We have a vast array of Classical, Stage & Screen, and more that we'll be posting soon.   Please watch our auctions if you’re a collector of vintage vinyl.  We are collectors and are impressed with the quality of this collection.
