Description
Welcome!
This record is hard to write about. It's an extreme rarity. In the 2009 edition of Goldmine price guide to 45 records it is given a near mint value of $1,200. I use the price guides as an indication of rarity, not necessarily of value. But I'm excited ( !!) and I'll do my best to give a fair description of the item and I have a three day return policy ( all postage and insurance to the buyer). First, where did I get it? A tag sale probably 6-7 years ago. It was in a box, in a paper sleeve, with about 60-70 other 45's being sold by a nice older lady whom I assume was the origional owner as her age was right. Purchased in South West Connecticut ( close to N.Y.C. !) at $15.00 for the box ! One of the banner days in my life ! The " A" side has high gloss with two of what I know as "paper scuffs", very light, and an X in crayon on the label. The label itself is free from tears, very clean, bright yellow, with slight ring wear. The trail off is etched with " P1010" which,hopefully you can see in the photos is it's catalog #. The " B" side, " INDIAN GIRL" which is about as politically incorrect as you can get, is also in beautiful condition, glossy disc with a clean label, bright yellow, no tears or writing. It has slight ring wear but not as bad as it looks. On this side the vinyl changes thickness about 1/2" away from the hole and that's showing up as darkness in the photos.The vinyl is pristene on this side, no flaws that I can see. Both sides play without skips or pops on my table. I think I can detect some very slight low volume crackling but that might be my 30 year old system or my 58 year old ears! In the photos I've tried to give some indication of the gloss on the record. You can see me with the camera and the window I use for natural light.
This record is beautiful and extremely rare! I have represented it as honestly as I can. To me it looks practically unplayed. I just can't justify having it sit in the basement anymore and might as well let it continue on to some collector that can really apprectiate and enjoy it !
If you win the auction you can Email me about shipping if you have a preference. I don't care for UPS but will use them if you want to. Otherwise I,ll probably go USPS packed and insured well! I don't know what's going to show under " Shipping" in the ad but just disregard it. I'll charge only actual mailing cost, or you can pick up if you like. I'm open for suggestions... My pay peroid is three days, Paypal only. Please see the other 45 I have on Ebay and I'll do my best to answer any questions you may have.
Thanks for stopping by and remember, " You'll never see an armoured car following a hearse, it's meant to be spent " !!
Enjoy !!
