Description

United States Air Force Presents:  1968 Christmas Radio Programs...  A Christmas Party With Sandler & Young/ The Free Design - The Now Sound Of Christmas.  For the full story of The Free Design's involvement with this record refer to the excellent documentary "Jingle Bell Rocks!" by Mitchell Kezin.  The cover is still in the shrink wrap and grades VG++.  There is some wear to the upper right corner and 2 small seam splits.  One on the spine and one on the top seam.  Please see the last 3 photos.  The record grades near mint.  Overall, it would be very tough to upgrade this copy.
Save on shipping with multiple wins.  For domestic shipping each additional LP is 25 cents for media mail.  For international shipping, I have to calculate a price based on weight.  The rate changes dramatically for each pound (as an example 2 lbs. is $24.50 and 2 lbs. 1 oz. is $39.00)  If you're bidding on multiple items just request an invoice when you're done and I'll send an adjusted invoice.  
The US Postal Service increased shipping rates again on 1/26/20.  Everything went up across the board but rates to Canada, Australia and Japan went up the most.  Please check shipping cost before bidding.  Thanks.
GRADING
Near Mint or Mint Minus:  My top grade.  The record or cover will show the most minimal of wear.  The record will have top gloss.  The cover will be free from any ring wear, splits, or handwriting.
VG++ :  Not quite Near Mint but a super clean, desirable record.
VG+ :  The record or cover will show signs of wear but no significant defects.
VG  :  Obvious signs of wear but the record still has life in it.  VG does not mean beat.
VG Minus  :  The record or cover will show moderate to heavy wear.  For a common record this would not be an acceptable grade.  For an in-demand, rare record it should be considered.
Good  :  Very heavy wear.  This grade would only be acceptable if the record is rare enough that you might not see another copy available for sale.
