Description

Up for auction is a signed copy of the late MILES DAVIS' 1963 release 'Quiet Nights' (Columbia PC 8906). The front cover was boldly signed (6,5 inches!!!) by MILES DAVIS in blue ball-point pen in my former hometown of Stuttgart (Germany) in the afternoon hours of July 11, 1988. I personally obtained MILES DAVIS autograph waiting outside the Liederhalle where MILES DAVIS was about to perform at Beethovensaal later that evening as part of the 'Jazz Gipfel Stuttgart' festival. The signature offered here is 100% genuine and comes with a life-long C.O.A. I'm a vivid autograph collector for 35 years. So, please bid with confidence!

Both sides of the US pressed vinyl RECORD are in NEAR MINT- condition. Both sides are still mirror-like and shiny, there's not a single mark, scuff or scratch to report of! The album is a 70ies re-issue with Matrix numbers XSM 75533-1AD (stamped) and XSM-75534 G/A (handwritten/engraved).
The MILES DAVIS signed COVER grades as EXCELLENT, there's NO unwanted writing, NO tears, NO seam splits, NO punch-holes, etc. The back panel is in NEAR MINT condition (NO barcode) while the signed front COVER displays mild shelf-wear and two creases to the bottom area (both are not through the colour though).
Both 70ies style COLUMBIA (red label with yellow COLUMBIA lettering) record LABELS are in MINT condition, there are NO spidermarks around the spindle-holes!

I stick to the 'RECORD COLLECTOR' grading system (please see below). Satisfaction guaranteed!

Thanks for looking & good luck! Please feel free to contact me for further details! Please have a look at my other auctions!

The album will be mailed to the lucky winner in a stiff record box with extra cardboard stiffeners for best possible protection! The experience and fun of buying records on eBay is ruined if you discover that – once the album arrives – they are either not in the condition stated or have been damaged in the post! For this reason I try to describe all my items in detail, and only post using strong sturdy packaging. Please see my excellent feedback especially in terms of packaging! My records come from a guaranteed smoke- and pet-free home!
