Description:  BEAUTIFUL copy of this very rare and incredible cool jazz LP from 1957.  This is a 100% original deep groove mono 1st pressing on Mode Records with the original grey / red labels as can be seen in the pictures.   The vinyl is VG+ / VG++, graded as such as there are a couple of completely superficial / inconsequential surface marks that have zero effect on the audio - this plays and sounds M-, honestly.  It’s a gorgeous listen from start to finish.  Super clean labels too.  The thick cardboard jacket is in stunning condition with tight seems and bright colors - exemplary for sure!

BIDDERS - PLEASE READ THE BELOW 
I grade my LPs VERY conservatively and accurately under a bright light.  A description of the grading scale is below:
M: MINT - perfect.  vinyl is pristine / cover is flawless and/or sealed
M- : just under mint.  a very, very slight amount of wear on the cover or inaudible wear on the vinyl (surface wear from age, generally) but is otherwise flawless
VG+: vinyl / cover shows signs minor signs age or wear that are more or less undistinct / inaudible.
VG: vinyl / cover shows some visible wear / age but is overall in very good shape.  pops and clicks may be ever so slightly noticeable, but don't effect play or overall listening experience.
VG-: vinyl / cover shows some relatively apparent age but is in overall good shape and still a fine copy to own / play.  
G+: vinyl shows some heavy wear but overall sounds decent.  cover has some flaws or shows much age
G: vinyl is in pretty rough shape visibly but plays ok.  cover shows a lot of age or has some major splits or tears.  
G-: vinyl looks / sounds pretty rough.  cover has major condition issues such as water damage, large rips, etc
*a double "+" or "-" indicates that the condition is just above or below the neighboring grade
