To answer recent questions:  I acquired this in the midwest recently from a retired juke box operator who was selling some of his older record stock from his storage.  Most of the records were hits and country titles along with oldies and the type of material you would expect.  But there were other non-hits scattered throughout the batch (at least several thousand pieces here) and this was one of them.  I have shown this to a friend who has the repro from the 70's and he also assured me that it is an original pressing.  It is vinyl not styrene.  There is a small dead wax mark on both sides after the numbering that looks like a small O with the tail of the line passing through it.  It has lived without a sleeve for a long time and (I know you've heard it before) it plays much better than it looks.  I've graded at VG-/VG and the sound sample is the record at 96k mp3.
