Be sure to look at my other auctions!  I have many great titles for sale this week. 
Artist: Hank Mobley 
Title: Soul Station
Label: Blue Note 4031
Mono/Stereo: Mono
Details:  First pressing of this iconic album. West 63rd labels, deep groove, RVG, Ear. Ultrasonic cleaned.

Record grading: Visually VG+ and plays a true NM-!  Unbelievably clean player! Visually this is glossy and rather free of scratches but shows some sleeve wear.  Play graded in full at NM-, nearly flawless. I heard almost no noise at all from beginning to end. Perhaps some extremely light crackle (barely) during the long bass solo on the title track but that’s it, otherwise M-. This came from a meticulous collector who had nearly all NM records. This one looked VG+ but when I played it I realized there wasn’t much need to upgrade. Marvelous player, grading is guaranteed! 

Cover grading: VG++. Very clean, almost NM. Tiny wear on corners of spine, very small laminate wear on opening edge. The rest is beautiful, bright white on back and clean seams. Fabulous set of a holy grail Blue Note! 

Labels: See photos

NM- THE RECORD SURFACE RETAINS A HIGH GLOSS, PERHAPS ONE OR TWO EXTREMELY FAINT MARKS, STILL EXTREMELY CLEAN 

EX   ESSENTIALLY A NM- SOUNDING COPY, BUT MIGHT SHOW A SMALL NUMBER OF VERY FINE SURFACE MARKS.  STILL VERY CLEAN VISUALLY AND DYNAMIC AUDIBLY.

VG++ THE RECORD RETAINS MUCH OF ITS ORIGINAL SHINE, FEW LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND OR LIGHT SCRATCHES MAY BE NOTED ON FAIRLY CLOSE EXAMINATION

VG+ THE RECORD STILL RETAINS SOME SHINE, SURFACE MARKS & SCRATCHES MAY OCCUR BUT ARE LIMITED AND TEND TO BE MODERATE TO LIGHT.  RECORD WILL PLAY VERY WELL WITH VERY LIGHT SURFACE NOISE MOSTLY HEARD DURING A QUIET PASSAGE.

VG  AVERAGE USED RECORD FROM HEAVY ROTATION, MAY HAVE STARTED TO LOSE ORIGINAL SHINE, SOME OBVIOUS SURFACE MARKS AND/OR SURFACE SCRATCHES WHICH MAY CAUSE SURFACE SOUNDS, ESPECIALLY IN SOFT PASSAGES
