Description

This is a very nice super rare US stereo copy of the one and only LP by Bohemian Vendetta, the Long Island, NY psych band,  released on Mainstream Records in 1968. This is an almost impossible to find item in any condition, with near mint stock copies having a book value of $500. 

 As to grading, I grade very conservatively following Goldmine Record grading standard. Except that for records that are a notch below near mint, rather than VG ++, I prefer to use grade of Excellent. I do not use VG++ grade in addition to Excellent grade as is done by some.

Visually the LP is in very good plus to excellent  condition with only a few barely visible inaudible hair line scuff/marks.  more on side 1 than Side 2. The LP plays about very good plus as tested through headphones after manual cleaning. The LP plays very nicely with just a slight hint of light crackle in a few spots. Also,  on Side 1 can be heard a few ticks at the very end of Perfection going into dead wax , and at the beginning of Satisfaction. There is also a very slight edge warp which can be seen on Side 2 but does not seem to have much impact on play. Overall this is still a very nice LP that should please all but the most finicky of collectors. As the LP was tested several weeks before listing it should, of course, be cleaned again before play. The cover is in very good condition. The corners on all sides are very slightly worn. The top seam and bottom seams are strong with only minor  rub wear/loss of color and no splits on either seam. The spine is strong as well. The front and back covers are very nice with excellent color. There is slight bit of  wear noticeable on the front cover including writing on the front cover within the letter V. There is a small cut out hole on near the top corner at spine. The front and back cover are clean with vibrant color but there is slight  very slight ring wear visible on both sides of cover. 

The LP is being sold without reserve and payment is expected within 3 days of auction close. Return of the LP will only be accepted if the same LP sold and shipped is returned in the same condition .Buyers that behave in a less than ethical manner will be reported and blocked from participation in future auctions. The LP will be separated from the cover when shipped to prevent seam splitting. 

If you bid on and win more than one item shipping for multiple purchases will be adjusted. If you win more than one item do not pay until I have had the opportunity to issue new invoice to reflect combined lower shipping cost. Shipping for one item is $4 and includes tracking

I only ship to Paypal confirmed addresses in the United States. Thanks for looking.

Save me as a seller as I have several sealed rare 1960's and 1970's rock, soul, blues and jazz LPs that will be auctioned. I am also starting to auction open and very clean MFSL and other audiophile pressings (Nautilus Superdisc, Direct Disk, Quiex, Columbia Mastersound, and Japanese pressings including number of originals), as well as promos. I will ultimately be auctioning almost 6500 rare and very clean LP albums
