Description

GENE VINCENT - HOT ROD GANG - CAPITOL EP 985 (MINT-!!!)

Killer and VERY RARE EP by Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps gang... Probably the rarest rockabilly EP out there and is considered by many collectors to be one of the "Holy Grails" of record collecting. Look closely gang, as this is probably one of the few times you will find one if these in this condition. The cover is in gorgeous VG++ condition with NO writing or seam splits. The record is in MINT- condition. Beautiful... OFFERED WITH NO RESERVE!!! Goldmine/Discoveries standard grading. Buyer pays postage which will be added after closing. (I try to get as close to exact postage as possible.) Overseas, I will advise. Insurance is optional and recommended. I accept MO's, cashier's checks, and credit cards through PAYPAL (Confirmed address required for Paypal.). Sorry... No personal checks. Check my other auctions gang... There's more killer EP's there.

People asking: Why did you grade the cover VG++ and not MINT?

Answer: There is very slight seam wear on the bottom seam, right in the middle (visible in the first scan), but no seam split. All other seams are nice. Also, the cover does not lay perfectly flat. That's it gang!!! Otherwise a gorgeous cover.
