WELCOME BOYS AND GIRLS TO ANOTHER INTERESTING FRANK ZAPPA LISTING, TONIGHT'S GUEST SPEAKER WILL BE NONE OTHER THAN REV. A. WEST, THE GREATEST LIVING ZAPPA SELLER KNOWN TO MANKIND.

REV. A. WEST: HELLO THERE, EVER WONDER WHY THE ZOOT ALLURES LP PROMO POSTER THAT YOU PURCHASED LOOKS KIND OF FADED AND CRAPPY? COULD IT BE THAT THE WEASEL THAT YOU HAD PURCHASED IT FROM SOLD YOU A REPRINT? OH MAN, NOBODY WOULD STOOP THAT LOW, WOULD THEY???? READ ON, 

WELL FIRST OF ALL, THE ZOOT ALLURES PROMOTIONAL POSTER WAS APROX. 23 X 35 INCHES AND WAS ORIGINALLY FOLDED TO FIT INSIDE OF THE ZOOT ALLURES ALBUM COVER AND THEN SENT TO RECORD STORES ONLY FOR DISPLAY IN CONJUCTION WITH PLAYING THE RECORD WHICH WAS ALSO PROVIDED, OR AT LEAST WARNER BROS. RECORDS PLANNED IT THAT WAY. SO IF YOUR ZOOT POSTER WAS NEVER FOLDED [ DON'T BELEIVE THOSE LIES ABOUT NOT FOLDED WAREHOUSE FINDS ] AND IF YOUR POSTER IS LESS THAN THE ABOVE DIMENSIONS PROVIDED,  PERHAPS YOU DIDN'T GET THAT INCREDIBLE DEAL THAT YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE GETTING AFTER ALL. 

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 23 X 35 INCHES PROMOTIONAL POSTER, YEAH IT'S BEEN FOLDED AND STORED INSIDE OF THE ALBUM COVER FOR A LONG TIME. IT'S NEVER BEEN DISPLAYED SO IT'S ABOUT AS NEAR MINT AS YOU MIGHT EVER SEE THIS POSTER, HOWEVER, THE BACK OF THE POSTER IS ALL WHITE AND THERE IS A LITTLE BIT OF YELLOWING THAT HAS DEVELOPED OVER THE YEARS, COMPLETELY AS WOULD BE EXPECTED AND NOT SERIOUS.

THE COVER LOOKS GREAT WITH JUST SOME LIGHT WEAR, BUT NO RECORD INDENTATION OR RING WEAR TO BE SEEN. THERE IS A PROMO STICKER ON THE FRONT COVER THAT HAS THE WB RECORDS LOGO AND HAS " PROMOTONAL COPY - NOT FOR SALE " - AMAZING CONDITION REALLY FOR A COVER THAT'S THIS OLD.

A FEW VERY LIGHT SURFACE MARKS ON BOTH SIDES THAT CAN MOSTLY BE SEEN WHILE MOVING THE RECORD AROUND UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT BULB. BASICALLY IT LOOKS NEAR MINT BUT I ONLY CALL A RECORD NEAR MINT WHEN I COULDN'T FIND ANY SURFACE MARKS AT ALL NO MATTER HOW SMALL, SO A VERY NICE VG+ IF I WERE GRADING IT BY MY GRADING STANDARDS. YOU'LL LOVE THE RECORD AND MAY BE ABLE TO APPRECIATE A SELLER THAT DOESN'T SAY THAT EVERY RECORD THAT HE'S SELLING IS MINT. THE RECORD COMES IN A COLLECTORS TYPE OF INNER SLEEVE AND JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT THAT IT COULDN'T GET ANY BETTER, A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE WILL ALSO BE PROVIDED IN THE POSSIBILITY THAT YOUR RECORD MIGHT MEET SOME SLEAZY MADONNA LP ON IT'S WAY TO YOU. OH YEAH, YOU DO ALSO GET THE ORIGINAL WARNER BROS, RECORDS PAPER INNER SLEEVE WHERE NOW YOU'D HAVE TO SEND IN $2.00 IN ORDER TO GET THE CRAPPY WARNER BROS. RECORDS LOSS LEADER TYPE OF COMPILATION RECORD THAT ONLY A FEW YEARS AGO WOULD HAVE ONLY COST YOU $1.00.

PAYMENT BY PAYPAL OR MONEY ORDER IN US DOLLARS.

PAYMENT MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 10 DAYS OF AUCTION END. NO EXCUSES SUCH AS " THE CALL GIRL TOOK MY WATCH AND MY WALLET TOO ", EVEN IF IT'S TRUE.
