About This Record.  Here's another super rare record that rarely turns up.  This is NOT a keeper copy, but sure plays pretty well and I don't know anyone that has a nicer copy!?  This is Albert King's LP entitled The Big Blues on King Records 852 from way back when.  Original USA first pressing Vinyl and cover are in only VG/VG+ condition. 

See details below and zoom in on photos.  I just found some cool things on eBay that I've been looking for . . . and now I must pay for them!  I will be selling other vinyl ending on the same day that I will be listing over the next few days.  Keep your eyes out!  See my other rare cool King LPs for sale.

READ my feedback and See my detailed photos of this!  No Reserve!  I offer full refund including shipping both ways (for USA buyers) in case for some wildly strange reason you might be unhappy with this purchase. 

Please note that I work for eBay and this link is to the Code I have to abide by as an eBay employee:  http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/everyone-employee.html I have no clue who works in the Collectibles Division and am not involved in any policy or other decisions that go on; I just happen to like vinyl and happen to work at eBay

Vinyl Condition.  VG+.  Vinyl look VG with one noticeable scuff on Side 1 that does not affect play (not a stylus mark), some noticeable paper marks, and a few light stylus marks, but bright and shiney vinyl.  Plays pretty much EX- to my ears with some background noise here and here . . . so I'll grade VG+.   

Cover Condition.  Very Good.  Cover presents well, but the bottom seam is split two inches bottom right, and the top seam is split one inch top right.  But you'll be happy to know the spine is pretty nice but shows shelf wear and aging and is about to split about 1/4 inch top left corner on the spine.  Cover shows light wear

Innsersleeve.  This comes cleaned on my VPI innersleeve in a new rice paper or similar sleeve.  But it includes the original plain paper sleeve that came with the LP with some writing on it.

Labels.  EX-.  Just some noticeable spindle marks/wear.  No major problems (see photos).

About Me.  I have been a Record Collector for over 35 years.  I bought this many years ago during my travels and have kept it well-preserved.  This comes cleaned on my VPI record cleaning machine.

Shipping and Payment.  PayPal only.  I ship promptly worldwide; sometimes the automatic eBay invoice does not have accurate shipping if you buy more than one LP, so if you are unsure email me and ask for an invoice. . . . I will ship by any method you want.  But if you do not pay for protecting your purchase, the record will be shipped at your own risk and not mine.  I offer full refund on this record including shipping both ways, unless you live outside North America in which case I will refund you shipping one way unless I made a mistake which I sometimes do because I am only human..  CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS:  Please add sales tax!
