Description
YOU ARE BIDDING ON A VERY GOOD PLUS CONDITION CHRIS POWELL & HIS FIVE BLUE FLAMES 45 RPM THE MASQUERADE IS OVER / TALKIN' OKEH 4-6818 RARE DOO WOP. (Vinyl looks and plays GREAT, very small superficial marks on vinyl that do not affect play, minor background noise, see pics). (Machine-Stamped in DEADWAX are ZSP 7720 1B & ZSP 7721 1A).
* I have collected many 45’s, most since the late 50’s thru early-mid 60’s. My collection includes thousands of 45 rpm records, many are VG+ to EX and several are in EX to NM- Condition. I recently turned 79 years old and my son has convinced me to start selling and start traveling. When I purchased or acquired them back then, I truly believed most were original pressings. I have kept the best care of them I could. Please look at the pictures for details. You can see how well kept the vinyl and labels are for being over 60 years old. I am not trying to fool anyone, I am not a Vinyl Expert. I describe the 45 Vinyl to the best of my ability based on Price Guide grading.
The 45’s are both machine stamped and etched, which are originals. I learned that not all record companies used a machine stamp back in the day. Many were etched as well and this is a big issue I have heard about from eBayers. However, you can check with Wikipedia and many others Professional Vinyl Guides and Info that will tell you is the same. I have many absolute Originals from the 1st Pressing and they have Etched Numbers and some are Machine Stamped, just an FYI. I did notice many of the bigger Record Companies did have machine stamped records, while smaller companies did not. If you have any questions about the item please ask. Thank you.
