Description
Topic 1OT25, "Second Shift: Industrial Ballads" with Ewan MacColl, vocals, accompanied by Peggy Seeger. Blue-label vinyl plays at VG+ with a light amount of background static evident on the outer tracks. UK-style laminated jacket has strong seams all around with less than in inch (1 cm or so) of wear at lower right; a bit of the laminate on the cover has pulled away from the edges; the jacket is very clean. Songs are "The Song of the Iron Road", "Droylsden Wakes", "The Calton Weaver", "Twenty-one Years", "The Best Little Door-Boy", "Oh, Dear Me", "Will Caird", "The Iron Horse", "The Durham Strike", "The Collier Laddie", "The Colour Bar Strike", and "The Sawn-Necked Valve". Shipping is $4.00 media mail, $7.00 priority mail in the continental U.S.; $15.00 airmail for Europe, Australia, Japan, and Korea; elsewhere inquire. Insured priority shipping required for Italy and Brazil. Additional LPs in one package are $1.00 per extra LP in U.S. and Canada, $3.00 per extra LP overseas. All LPs are play-graded unless sealed. I dislike low-quality packaging as much as any other eBayer. Individual records will be shipped in special, handcrafted mailers unlike the usual type in three ways: (1) They are significantly larger all around and padded around the edges to prevent corner bumps to the jacket; (2) they are padded on both sides of the record with styro sheets or thick cardboard sheets to prevent damage to the record surface; (3) they are constructed of heavier-duty cardboard than normal mailers to provide further protection. All used LPs are shipped with record securely inside an inner sleeve but outside the jacket to prevent seam splitting in transit; our innovative padded packaging will prevent seam splitting for new, sealed LPs. The end product is designed to withstand a drop from a second-story window with no damage (though I will not test it with your package). No record should arrive in a condition worse than described! Multiple LPs are shipped in BagsUnlimited pizza-style boxes that are larger around than LPs and will also be well padded. All opened LPs are play-graded on a VPI turntable with Audioquest tonearm.
