This album here comes from my Grandfathers store established sometime in the mid 1940s, which we used to sell Jewelry, Electronics, Musical instruments, and vinyl RECORDS!

This item slipped through the cracks, and never got sold...so this is NOS. ( New Old Stock )

I am very familiar with with STILL SEALED, or the grade SS...as I like to buy these types of Records for my own collection!...plus, I worked ( Store Manager ) at the store, and backing this one as the real deal, from the factory 'STILL SEALED' in its original cellophane shrink wrap.

DETAILS: Outer Jacket Cover Sleeve: NEAR MINT (NM) OR MINT MINUS (M-)
There is a 1 1/2" inch split in Cellophane Shrink Wrap, front right lower corner...
Very, very small tear at front, bottom, kinda center.
Factory cellophane is taunt and does have the distinct, unique small breathe holes in the cellophane shrink wrap, as should be present with this album.

*This Jimmy Ruffin albums without these breath holes present, could have been re-wrapped in a newer, non factory cellophane. 
Also, this Jimmy Ruffin albums that do not have a taunt ~ tight shrink wrap fit, with instead, a loose fit, may have been re-wrapped in a newer, non factory cellophane.*
Careful out there, I've seen them here on Ebay.

There are two of our store price stickers and black magic marker 'x'....that are on the outside, on the cellophane shrink wrap...and not on the Jacket Cover its self....

A rare find in this condition. Color is bright.The album its self and all four corners are near perfect! Looks 'NEW.'

Record Grade: Since this record has never been opened, I am assuming the Vinyl Record Disc  is  'MINT'!
Please do check out my detailed pictures...

HEY, it's as if it is the 1960's again, and you are walking into our store to purchase this album.

Thanks for looking at this item!.

All records carefully packaged and shipped in specially made, very protective album mailer box.
