VG+ / **

(rec/cvr) Solid, conservative grade. Slight label wear. Comes with plain paper sleeve.


Nice copy of The Small Faces' first release, from 1965. It's always incredible to me when something like this has a typo on it (A side label: "SALE NOT FOR"). It's not like, say, this listing, which I have neither time nor desire to go back and proofread; this is a major record release backed by a major label! So much for first impressions! Jeez! Was it such a hot mess to get this thing released in a hurry, or what? Maybe they were simply going along with the shoddy grammar already on display on this two sided masterpiece. We've got a "Whatcha Gonna" and a "What's A Matta." I'm just glad this isn't English class.

This record doesn't turn up for sale too often. Don't miss out!!

Records are strictly, visually graded:

NM:
 disc appears unplayed; sleeve shows no signs of handling
EX:
disc has no flaws; sleeve has only very minor, not obvious flaws
NEX:
disc has very minor, inaudible flaws; sleeve still looks quite nice
VG+:
disc normally will not have audible marks, but more visual flaws; sleeve will have more noticeable, minor wear
VG:
disc will have slight audible flaws; sleeve clearly shows wear



Unfortunately as we all know,
the costs for shipping internationally have gone up, I have no choice but to pass this increase along.
As always, I try to cover my expenses only (I do not charge a "handling fee" or try to make money from shipping charges), and it's not uncommon for my costs to exceed what I charge...

PRIORITY SHIPPING TO ANYWHERE IS AVAILABLE, JUST ASK!!

U.S. MEDIA MAIL is $4;

(Whatever they're now calling:) FIRST CLASS INT'L is:
$8.50 TO CANADA for 1 or 2 45s; plus $1 each add'l;
$12.50 TO EUROPE & ELSEWHERE for 1 or 2 45s; plus $2 each add'l.

If my charges end up being too high I will (happily) refund; I'm just trying to cover my costs 
& not have to pay to give up my records...


Combined shipping is not a problem.
