An impossibly obscure Kay Bank Custom Pressing

This is one of 2 copies I unearthed locally (the second has already sold)

Kay Bank Studios was a recording studio in Minneapolis, Minnesota at 2541 Nicollet Avenue. Daniel Heilicher and his brother Amos started in a business together in the '30s, distributing and stocking jukeboxes. In 1954, they founded Soma Records ("Amos" backwards), and started producing records out of Kay Bank Studios.

Eventually a number of huge hits would come out of their efforts at the studio, including the Fendermen's "Muleskinner Blues", Dave Dudley's "Six Days on the Road", the Trashmen's "Surfin' Bird",[1] and The Castaways' "Liar, Liar". Those last two singles were hits from Minneapolis's golden, mid-'60s era of teenage rock, and their success inspired countless garage bands to entertain dreams of one-hit-wonderdom.

Among those who traveled to Minneapolis to record were Bobby Vee's band the Shadows ("Susie Baby"), and Chad Allan and the Reflections (later the Expressions, who became The Guess Who), who recorded "Shakin' All Over".

CONDITION:
record: VG- with writing on both labels
"little Charlie" begins as a standard garage surf tune and mid-way through kicks into high gear with serious punk drumming. HEAR IT
(NOTE: This is a different copy than the one currently for sale but in equal condition):

Please Note My Conservative Grading System:

I use the following grades: M (mint, new sealed records only get this grade),
NM  (totally flawless but opened record - many other dealers would call this "mint", I only differentiate when the record is not factory sealed),
EX (only very minor signs of use)
VG+ (a *high* grade from me, record may show minor signs of use, but is in overall great shape and should play free from defect),
VG  (record may have some minor surface marks, but nothing that should detract from the listenability), VG-  (may have a number of surface marks and may play with some noise, but still listenable and a decent play copy)
G (I rarely list anything with this grade unless it is highly rare and valued, may have many surface marks, but still playable without skipping)

I have over 20 years experience in record dealing and grade conservatively.

Shipping note: Due to numerous postal problems I no longer ship to Italy or Brazil.

Addendum concerning overseas shipping since this is my most commonly asked question: The shipping price is as stated by ebay's shipping calculator on the auction page. Many overseas buyers are unaware that The United States Postal Service raised rates in January. Rates are significantly higher than they were last year. The cost is calculated by weight, which includes the sturdy heavy box and filler inserts I use to guarantee a safe trip overseas. The weight of the packaging unfortunately bumps the item into the higher cost of shipping bracket. The USPS no longer has a sea-mail shipping auction. The cost quoted is for standard airmail delivery and is actually the cheapest method available.
