Bill Evans Portrait in Jazz Riverside Records 1960 first pressing RLP 12-291 stereo in a cardboard sleeve. 1st press stereo deep groove black labels with no Inc after Bill Grauer Productions at bottom of labels. The record grading is Very Good VG . The vinyl has its share of marks scuffs, but they re mostly superficial as the album plays well with great fidelity. There s underlying crackling at times and a few intermittent pops, but no skips. The following is on the runout groove the etchings are faint on the runout so I tried my best to capture them with the camera, but they are verified :
Side A : etched RLP 12-1162A
Side B : etched RLP 12-1162B
The outer case is only Good G . The covers are both fine - clean smooth with minimal age wear VG . However, both the top seam and spine are 100 split. Fortunately, the bottom seam is intact and in VG condition. Of course you could tape or glue the top seam spine if you wanted to. I did not tape them as I will leave that up to the buyer. all reflected in the photos . All sales final.
