FORTSON & SCOTT - "Sweet Lover / My Dreams Of You" 
Stupendously Rare 1968 45rpm on PZAZZ  / AUTHENTIC: (Delta 73651)

Visually graded condition of disc: VG+  (Read Below) 

(Unlike 99.9% of the records I've been listing here on Ebay for 11 years, this record most likely 'has' been played...maybe twice.
Aside from it's visual grading (which is all I do for grading here on Ebay) this record plays much better. To prove that...I've included
actual clips from each side below. (These were played using my Shure V-15 cartridge which requires only 3/4 gram weight.)
Give a listen, and decided for yourself. Regardless of how it looks....it plays almost like new!)

Copies of this record a few years ago sold for $4000-5000 here on Ebay. I'm starting it a very low price.
Get a copy from a reputable seller (just check my feedback) and bid with the utmost confidence!


YOU CAN HEAR THIS RECORD WITH THE LINK BELOW.
I USE A SHURE V-15 CARTRIDGE TIED FOR MONO FOR MY MONO 45'S TO MINIMIZE NOISE
YOUR RECORD COULD SOUND SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT USING A STEREO CARTRIDGE

You can hear a clip from the top side (at 64k) HERE
You can hear a clip from the flip side (at 64k) HERE
(Need I mention that your record will sound much better than these low-fi files?)


OVERSEAS BUYERS: THIS RECORD WILL BE SHIPPED BY EXPRESS MAIL INTERNATIONAL WITH FULL INSURANCE.
IT IS A SAFE AND QUICK WAY TO SHIP OVERSEAS. IT IS SOMEWHAT EXPENSIVE, SO READ THE SHIPPING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
BEFORE YOU BID, SO YOU'LL KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THE CHARGES THAT WILL BE REQUIRED.

NO 'BEST OFFERS' ACCEPTED

Continuing with the liquidation of my record collection passing them on to people who can more appreciate them. These are items from my collection of nearly 40,000 promo singles, LP's & CD's from the 60's thru the 90's that I was fortunate to acquire from doing 37 years of on-air Rock Radio.

All of my records are guaranteed original pressings. No boots or re-issues.

In the 80's I advertised and auctioned off thousands of records in Goldmine magazine under the name of Hemp's Hits.
If you are a previous customer, you already know of my integrity as an honest dealer.
Those of you who are not familiar with me need only to check my Feedback.
You can bid and buy with complete confidence.

The most important thing you need to know, is that to the absolute best of my knowledge,
nearly all of the records I list, unless otherwise noted, have never ever been played on a turntable.

These records were sorted, stored, moved a few times, and then stored again for decades.
Some carefully, others were not.
All of my gradings are strictly visual, and more often than not, quite generous. However, because of various quality
in pressings, I cannot guarantee that the pressings themselves will be noise-free. That comes with the territory.
Many 50's (e.g. Chess, Vee-Jay, etc.) & 60's pressings, especially the small independent labels, were
pressed "on-the-cheap" and are somewhat noisy even at NrMint.

I will not play these records for any reason. (Unless noted) the record you receive will be like new and unplayed.
Visual grading is for disc only. Company sleeves (when available) are in various conditions. 

Sorry...I do not create audio clips on request. If there is no audio clip attached, I don't have one.

MY GRADING SCALE
(very similar to the Goldmine standard)

NM (Near Mint): Record will show no serious scuffs or scratches in the playing area. May have minor scuffs on edges from decades of storage, or a small scuff, scratch or paper scuff on playing area.
It's near mint, not mint (which would be 'sealed' to me). There should be no audible distractions.
M- (Near Mint minus): A scuff or two or light scratch or two on either or both sides that may be heard.
VG+: Scuffs & some minor scratches in the playing area. Some will most likely be heard.
VG: Many scuffs or scratches that will be heard but record should still play fine.

Record grading is subjective. That's why I offer a money back guarantee on
everything I sell (no refunds on shipping charges).

ur package arrives safely. I have not had a single disc arrive broken in nER OF RECO
