TITLE :  There Is A Song 
LABEL:  Ambrotype Records   
YEAR: 19??
COVER:   VG+ to maybe better  (Cover is in nice condition with a bit of ring wear and a price sticker.  The top left edge has some wear but is not split. No splits.)
Vinyl (Visual Grade):   VG++ PLEASE READ : ( The LP is in very nice condition!  Great shine and very well cared for.   I do not see many signs of any play but the LP does have a pressing flaw that will affect the first two songs on both sides of the LP.  I played the LP on my Technics 1200 with a Shure M97xe to see how the flaw would be handled and it did not cause a skip or any real sound distortion at all but the the needle was definitely jerking back and forth quickly when passing over this flaw that stretches for a few minutes on both sides for the first two tracks of each side.  I listened through headphones and did not hear any real problems BUT depending on your system this flaw may cause you issues with play back.  It played well on my turntable but it may not on yours, depending on what system you use for playback.  I also checked the LP out on a Technics SL-Q202 with an average cart and needle and it did not skip or cause any distortion but the cart does jerk when it passes the flaw.  It plays well but I must mention this pressing flaw in the description.)

COMMENTS:    This is a hard to find LP by The Free Design.  An original!  Besides some Private Press LP's I am also putting up for auction this week a nice selection of rare and unique Alison Steele aka Nightbird & Company : Cosmic Connections records.  These were issued by the US Army Reserve and each contain rare interviews with music stars of the time. I am offering an eclectic mix of Records this week, please check my store and other auctions out. I am happy to combine shipping for you! If you win more than one LP from me, simply wait for me to send you an invoice that will save you money.  Thanks for looking!

I use Standard Goldmine Grading Standards and consider myself pretty picky and rather strict about conditions so bid with confidence.  ALL LP's ARE VISUALLY GRADED UNLESS NOTED.  See my About Me Page for more info.
