Louis Smith Here Comes Louis Blue Note 1584 Lp Vg 1st Ear 47 W Tommy Flanagan

Record Condition: VG original 1958 monophonic pressing, Plastylite ear is present, 47 W. 63rd labels, RVG etched in the runouts. I can t imagine there are too many nicer looking copies of this original 1958 pressing out there. The majority of the minor flaws that are present are on side 1/track 1. The sound clip below is the entirety of side 1/track 1 the intro to side 2. Side two is probably closer to VG but using the strict conservative Goldmine-based grading scale I always try to stick to, I am going to call it a VG as well. Everything plays great, give it a listen below.
Cover Condition: VG some ring wear on the back, light stain on the bottom, a few stains on the top and bottom. Nice shape overall.
Inner Sleeve type: Mobile Fidelity archival
Other notes: This will be shipped Priority Mail domestic international for insurance purposes and shipping on this LP is more expensive than the others I have up.

PLEASE READ BELOW BEFORE BIDDING:
The fine print:
All unsealed records are professionally cleaned on a VPI record cleaning machine using high quality alcohol-free L Art du Son concentrated solution. LPs are shipped in a poly outer sleeve with the record outside of the cover but in its inner sleeve to prevent seam-splitting. All vinyl is visually and conservatively graded under strong artificial light.
I grade conservatively using the Goldmine grading scale. There is no such thing as a mint record, near mint NM is my highest grade. Grades are a visual representation of the playing surfaces.
NM gt VG gt VG gt VG gt VG- gt G gt Good gt Poor
NM - Playing surfaces will look new with no sings of mishandling. Possibly unplayed.
VG - At most a few minor imperfections that have little to no effect on play. Possibly unplayed as well.
VG - Still a great-looking record with slightly more imperfections that may add some background noise in parts.
VG - Even more imperfections that may add some background noise in parts.
VG-/G /G/P - I won t sell too many LPs that fall into these grades, but there will be a progression downwards from VG depending upon the severity of the damage. These LPs will be play-tested at least in part to ensure they don t skip.
Covers follow the same grading scale.
I don t generally grade inner sleeves, but if this information is important to you, please ask I will make a note above if the LP is accompanied with a generic, company or custom-printed this is unique to the release, they usually have pictures, lyrics, etc. inner sleeve.
LPs are shipped in Whiplash mailers to ensure safe arrival. They are the most expensive mailers, but also the best. It s important the LPs arrive to you in the same condition they leave me in, and Whiplash ensures that.
