Benny Goodman Louis Armstrong Esquire 7" 78 Vinyl Jazz Promo Record 1944 Sampler
Used
Record surfaces retain some gloss but show numerous surface scuffs, handling marks, several more pronounced scratches, and a small edge chip at the outer rim as pictured. Original printed paper envelope sleeve is heavily age-toned with creasing, edge and corner wear, small edge tears, and scattered spots, while the typed Esquire letter shows mild discoloration, soft corners, and a small stain near the lower edge. Playback has not been tested on our equipment; overall well-worn vintage promotional copy with visible cosmetic wear to disc, sleeve, and insert.
