Be sure to look at my other auctions I have many great titles for sale this week.
Details: Rare mono audition only release. This particular copy was reserved for Alonzo King, still with his tag affixed. As you can see in photos, it s only attached along the top edge. Could be removed if so desired but I feel this adds to the charm and uniqueness. Liberty labels, Van Gelder stamp. With mono sticker on front, comes with the Liberty inner sleeve it was issued in. This lp has been cleaned on a Degritter ultrasonic cleaner.
Record
condition: NM- Very clean and glossy A couple extremely minor sleeve traces on side 1, side 2 is pristine. Plays NM or NM- from beginning to end, nearly no noise is heard. Marvelous copy
Cover: Strong VG. Could probably pass for VG . Minor stains on front and back, slight rubbing. Seams are in great shape, lovely set
Labels: See photos
