Found nestled amongst sheet music while I have been sorting out my late father’s music room. Its believed to have been saved from his bothers collection.
I am not an expert on vinyl records as it does appear to be one man’s perspective, But the handful of records I have listed are quite rare in their gene, it would be a great shame not to be treasured by someone who would really appreciate them. I have personally visually graded the item, posted the pictures of the item you will receive and played/listened to the record and have tried to give a realistic assessment of a seller's grading using to the best of my ability to be competence and honest in this field.
This is what I have found.
Excellent: The record obviously shows very little signs of having been played, for me there is very little lessening of sound quality as I am not hearing on my system, I have played it on. The cover is complete but does show signs of foxing light wear and has clear tape where the adhesive has become unstuck. Clearly a very nice example.
If collecting will only be from Loughborough, I have the means to play the record on a quality system and I am quite happy for you to listen to both sides of the recording at my home so you are fully satisfied before any money is passed so you can be assured you are buying a very well-preserved, undamaged recording. As I truly believe if you are a serious collector, this will not disappoint.
Postage option, It will be sent royal mail, sealed in clear plastic cover inside a flat cardboard protector and 6mm ply board added to the package for the best protection for the journey.
Postage aboard via eBays GSP only.it will survive with my packing methods,
