Description

 

    IMPERIAL 5194  SMILEY LEWIS  "LILLIE MAE"/"THE BELLS ARE RINGING".  The record is a clean Vg+ ; plays fine. Includes a rare original "script" Imperial sleeve; in 45 years of collecting New Orleans R&B I've only had three (3) of these sleeves ; one is currently on ebay for a starting price of $49.99. This sleeve is certainly not mint :has a 5 inch split left side and some aging and "crinkling" but you'd be a fool to put a record in it ; it's more for display than anything else. This is Smiley's first 45 by the way.

NOTE : MAY REQUIRE REGISTRATION DEPENDING UPON COUNTRY OF PURCHASE AND FEEDBACK RATING. THIS IS DUE TO RECORDS GETTING "LOST IN THE MAIL". FRANCE, ITALY, SPAIN AND NOW JAPAN ARE PART OF THIS CHICANERY.

                   WAIT FOR THE INVOICE BEFORE PAYING

GRADING :  MINT (M) ; M- (NM) ; Vg++ ; Vg+ ; VG ; Vg- ; G+ ; G ; G- ETC. PLAY GRADE IS OFTEN ALSO STATED.  THE LABEL CONDITION IS NOT PART OF THE VISUAL GRADE ; LABEL DEFECTS ARE STATED.  I do use the M (Mint) grade but not very often.  My Vg++ is a record you will never have to upgrade unless there is a label issue.  BUYING, SELLING & TRADING COLLECTIBLE 45'S & LP'S ON AN INTERNATIONAL BASIS SINCE 1970.

FEEDBACK : I LEAVE POSITIVE FEEDBACK AFTER YOU THE BUYER HAVE LEFT POSITIVE FEEDBACK FOR ME .

REFUNDS : IF NOT SATISFIED, REFUND WILL BE GIVEN WHEN YOU RETURN THE RECORD TO ME SAFELY. NO "SWITCHEROOS".
