I was the owner of an independent record store in Seattle for over 20 years and the majority of these items were pieces I put aside during that time for my personal collection. It kills me to sell some of these rare items, but I have gone back to college (at 47!) and need the money for tuition. All my Items are legitimate retail product, no bootlegs or pirates.
All photos/scans are of my actual items. I do not use found or stock photos; what you see is what you get. Thanks for looking!
