Description
Please read the complete description and look at all the pictures that are after the description, to avoid asking unnecessary questions, and to avoid any problems upon receipt of this item. In addition, please disregard Ebay's definitions of condition descriptions, and go by my description of this item.
This is a 45 RPM record by the Mandrells (side A), and Barbara Mandrell and Brian Lonbeck (side B). It's on the O-side label, and the numbers are k-29-A and k-29-B. O-side was located at 1611 S. Hill in Oceanside California, which was actually their house. Oceanside is a beach city in the northern San Diego area, where Barbara lived in her teen years. I acquired this record from my buddy's wife, who grew up in San Marcos, just a little bit east of Oceanside. She bought it new, so I'm assuming that the song (or songs) must have gotten local air play. Pan Handle Rag is an instrumental, and Don't Hold Your Breath is a vocal. My Google research shows that this record was Barbara and the Mandrells first record, and is so rare that it's not listed in any discographies. I'm not a record collect as such, but I am a vintage jukebox collector that's acquired thousands of 45's over the years. I'm no expert on grading, but I would say that this record would probably be graded as a VG+, with very little label wear. There are no warps, cracks or chips, and both sides play well all the way through with no skips, and very little in the way of unwanted or annoying sounds. The plain white sleeve that this record was in when I acquirred it is included.
After the pictures, you can click on the video icons to see and hear short videos of each side playing. You will need to click on the start arrow or the start button at the bottom left and wait a few seconds.
I'm selling this record as-is, but will guarantee it to be received as described, and playing as shown in the video.
This is not a best offer auction, there's no buy it now, and I don't end auctions early.
Please note that due to new Ebay and PayPal policies for 2011, I must now charge and collect sales tax on items sold to buyers with shipping addresses here in the state of California. The tax rate here in Riverside CA is 7.75%, so if you live here in CA, when bidding, please bear in mind that that's an extra 78 cents you will have to pay on every $10.
This record will be very well packed in a box with plenty of protection. I guarantee you will NOT receive a damaged item that's poorly packed (like some that I have bought). Free USPS Priority Mail shipping with insurance and delivery confirmation in the USA is included. I ship within 1 working day of receipt of payment, and give the buyer the tracking number within a day of shipping. PayPal payment must be received within 5 days of the end of the auction.
Sorry, but due to past problems with the U.S. and foreign post offices, absolutely no shipping outside the USA. If you are outside the U.S., but have a U.S. address that I can ship to, please e-mail me and I will put you on my buyer block exemption list so that you may bid.
I always have and always will resolve any problem that arises. Please be sure to contact me if there is any problem. Thanks!
