Condition is Used. Shipped with USPS Media Mail. Ebay applies tax. 
DISK: From a collector's vault, a nice looking, sounding record by Little Walter. Been selling 78s but stumbled onto this 45. Looks like new and not like an almost 50 year old record so very unlikely, on its appearance to be an original. Not on Discogs as copies often are. Run-out numbers, also indicative of a copy, are 45-7604 and small 37 and 45-7608 with small 37. Would be good in a jukebox. It is the original sound, which I think is rarely matched or excelled in this genre. The improvisational style of singing and all the musicians, especially harmonica and drums, is unexcelled. Love Little Walter.

My Qualifications: My representation of records is based on my reasonable, careful but amateur examination without magnification or expert knowledge. I tell what I have found by my research.  So be forewarned that the record may not be exactly what I think it is or absolutely perfect in every way under expert magnified visual groove inspection or expert audiophile listening scrutiny on a high-buck amp and turntable.  I am just an intelligent and cautious guy reasoning out the clues and liquidating records as honestly as I can.  A veteran buyer/dealer on Ebay advised me its better to go a little low on grading. I'm sure he is right. Please understand, unless I say otherwise, that the records I am selling were not collected by me so I do not know their history. I am no kind of expert in music or records. I research each item on Discogs and, for 45s, Fosman's Dead Wax book, 45cat, and other sites for all the information I put in the post. If I have information from Discogs, Fosman or another seller's post that a record is a reissue, I indicate that. I listen to all 45rpm and 78rpm records and parts of any 33rpm that looks potentially damaged. I use an Ion turntable connected to my computer for 33 and 45. I judge them according to Discogs standards and give the reasons for my rating so buyers can second guess me. I listen to 78s on a 3 speed suitcase player with external speakers. I rate them on on sound alone. My quality ratings are not certified in any way. If the difference between an original edition and a reissue is indicated by a tiny detail I do not discover on Discogs, Fosman, etc. or by another seller, I may not know that.  In any case, any record collector or dealer will tell you that published comments about record authentication are sometimes wrong, even in reference books.  I sell in the belief that collectors of vintage records are more knowledgeable than me about what they collect and know what they are looking at. I am glad to answer any questions that could determine the authenticity or grade of a version. Because collectors may know the true value of a record, while I do not. I start at a very reasonable price and let bidders set the true value, which is often much higher than I thought or much lower.  You can notice that I do not hype records suggesting they are worth a high bid.  That is up to bidders. If an item gets no bids after a while it will relist a few times with a decreasing starting bid. After a few cycles, it isn't worth my effort to pack and ship it so I discard it to my bulk sell boxes even though I originally thought it was worth something.
