OLD TOWN RECORDS

RELEASED ON CAPITOL RECORDS LABEL. WHITE LABEL PRESTO ACETATE TEST PRESS. TITLE IS " THE MAGIC BOW" in STEREO!!!! VINYL HAS NICE LUSTRE ON BOTH SIDES AND IS MINT-. LABELS ARE CLEAN WITH NO MARKINGS OR WEAR! I'M INCLUDING A COVER FROM A COMMERCIAL COPY TO GO WITH IT ALTHOUGH,, THIS WAS RECIEVED ONLY IN A PRESTO SLEEVE.  PURCHASE FROM DAN McKENNA WHO WORKED THE JAZZ DEPARTMENT AT CAPITOL RECORDS IN THE LATE 1950'S TO MID 1960'S.

This disc is made of metal and vinyl coated, most likely on a presto disc because most the collection are in presto sleeves.

THIS LP WAS MADE IN 1959, ALMOST 6 MONTHS BEFORE IT'S ORIGINAL RELEASE IN STORES. DAN McKENNA, WHO WORKED IN THE JAZZ DEPT, OBTAINED THIS RECORD IN 1960 AND HELD ON TO IT TIL 2010 WHEN I PURCHASED IT. IT IS NOW UP FOR SELL. HE TOLD ME THAT HE THINKS ONLY ONE STEREO ACETATE WAS MADE AND POSSIBLY A FEW COPIES OF MONO EXIST FROM WHAT HE SAW BACK IN THE EDITORIAL ROOM. I PURCHASED ABOUT 100 ACETATE FROM DAN, BUT MOSTLY ARE JAZZ.  

MUST PAY SHIPPING AND EXPRESS MAIL WITH INSURANCE

All of our LP's are shipped in sturdy cardboard LP mailers with appropriate padding.

With the exception of sealed LP's, all LP's are removed from their outer sleeves to prevent seam splitting.  Upon request, we will give your sealed LP's the same treatment.

All records are visually graded, sometimes a few tracks are tested, or I may play the lp in it's entirity.  Here's our grading system.

SS (Still Sealed) Unopened records, still in original shrink wrap.  In original manufactured condition unless otherwise noted (i.e. evidence of mildew or bent corners, etc.)  OLD TOWN RECORDS does not sell re-sealed records.  If we have ANY suspicion that a sealed record is a re-seal or has sustained significant damage, we open it for inspection and grading! M (Mint)  The record and sleeve are in perfect, original condition.  The record may have been played but will have no evidence of deterioration.  If we use this grade at all, the record WILL live up to it!  A mint sleeve will be just that:  perfect!   
M- (Near Mint) A very clean record.  Near mint except for slight, superficial scuffs.  Sleeves in this condition may have marginal defects, but will not have significant creases or splits.  
VG+ (Very Good Plus) A well-cared-for record that is noticeably less than perfect, but defects are not visually or audibly distracting.  Record surfaces may have slight scuffs or light scratches, but are still primarily clean.  Sleeves may have some creases or minor ring wear, but should not be split.  Will satisfy all but the most demanding collector.
VG (Very Good) A used, reasonable copy to play.  Many of the defects found in a VG+ copy will be more pronounced in VG condition.  Surface noise may be evident and sleeves may look worn, but the record is still a decent copy.
VG- (Very Good) A well-worn record that is still playable.  Good does not necessarily mean "bad" but a record in this condition will have audible distractions and may have visible groove wear.  Sleeves may have all manner of defects, but are still intact.
G (Good) and F (Fair) These grades are for beat-up records. We only sell records in these grades if they are extremely rare and sought-after.
