This is the extremely rare 1st pressing on the ABC-Paramount ABC-122. I have seen this record sell from $150 to $840 in the last 5 years on ebay! It is a deep grove pressing and the vinyl weighs 150 grams. The jacket is made of heavy cardboard and the cover is laminated and glossy. 

Condition:

Unfortunately, this LP is not in the best condition.

Cover: VG- / G+

Vinyl: VG- / G+

The cover has one 1” edge split and is frayed in several places on the edges. There is a crease that runs the full length of the front and back. There is significant surface wear on the cover. The viny has significant wear and graying in some places. There are lots of scuffs and 1 deep scratch that extends over second cut on side two. There is lots of surface noise but the music still comes through strong. This record may skip depending on what cartridge you use. It did not skip when I played it using a Gold Ring G1042 but did skip often with a Grado G Black (Grado cartridges are know for poor tracking abilities). The label has many spindle marks. Noting the condition, please bid accordingly.
