Description
RARE LP - BUDDY HOLLY'S 1st RECORD
ORIGINAL VERSION OF "THAT'LL BE THE DAY"
DECCA HIGH FIDELITY MICROGROOVE RECORD
Bonus record - 45/ picture sleeve free w/ winning bid
Condition Is As Follows:
Front Cover is A strong VG with a little bit of scuffing - a couple of creases and a little bit of a tear after the word "Be" on the cover - the letter "A" is stamped in blue, just above the "Th" in the word "That" supersize the photo to see the flaws - they are relatively minor and the cover displays very well - the colors are vivid.
Back Cover is a strong VG+ with the only real flaw being the letter "A" stamped near the top right. The other albums listed all have lower numbers than this record & they're pretty cool, too. 2 by Bill Halley and his comets, 1 by Patsy Cline and 1 by Bobby Helms and one by Billy Ward and the Dominoes.
Seams: Top seam has a 2" tape repair on the top right (viewed from the front) and the bottom seam has a 1/4" at the right side opening.
Spine: Very nice condition - see the photo - just a small bit of tape right near the bottom on the word "Decca" and a little scuffing on the top - no splits.
Record is VG with light but visible surface scratches that cannot be felt but do create surface noise. Even though, the fidelity is rich and sharp - especially the guitars. There are no skips - guaranteed.
Labels are VG++
Overall, this is a decent copy of a very rare record. Please contact me before you bid if you have any questions. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
