Description

For sale is an original / OG example of "No Part Time Love For Me / It's Too Bad Baby" by Martha Star on the Thelma Record Co. label, HJC 708, white label DJ promo. Matrix: HJC - 707 JC, Nashville Matrix, 59 / HJC - 708, Nashville Matrix, 59. 
Condition:
Label on "No Part Time Love" side has date of "8/24/66" written in blue ink on it. Labels otherwise very clean. Vinyl rates a visual and play-graded NM. A superb example of this rare soul 45.  
From the estate of a DJ who ran a gospel/Christian radio station from his basement in the 1960s, when you could apparently do that sort of thing. He received tons of secular promotional 45s despite being a gospel outfit, which he impeccably kept in file cabinets in his basement. Please see my other listings for more from his remarkable collection. 
My grading system:

STILL SEALED : Jacket imperfections, if any, will be described. Vinyl guaranteed to be in unplayed condition. 


M : I don't use this grade, on the assumption that no record or jacket is truly flawless.


M- : Vinyl appears unplayed, jacket bears no signs of wear. I rarely, if ever, use this grade. 


NM : Like M-, with possible scintilla/whiff of an imperfection


VG++ : May have a couple very minor imperfections. (superficial marks that have little or no bearing on sound.) Jacket may have a couple very minor flaws.


VG+ : Like VG++, but with a few more light imperfections


VG : Several light imperfections, and possibly one or two more serious ones, such as small feelable scratches. Still plays well.  


VG- : Will display numerous minor imperfections and/or feelable scratches that affect playback quality. Between you and me, you could do better. 


GOOD : What I consider pretty poor... numerous major imperfections. I generally don't sell items in this range unless they are of major significance.
