GUIDED BY VOICES - Propeller

Rockathon Records 001, 1992


THIS AUCTION ENDS ON FRIDAY, SEPT 22, AT 10:51 PM EDT / 7:51 PM PDT


After owning #19 since 1999, I have decided to part with it. So I will no longer own any original LP pressings earlier than VOT, which is ok. Recently, I submitted photos to gbvdb.com and to Trader Vic, for inclusion on his Propeller Gallery FB page. Last I checked, the photos are on gbvdb, but have not yet been added to the Propeller Gallery FB. However, in my correspondence with Vic, I mentioned the similarities between the #19 and #9 artwork (#9 is attributed to Bob). My timing was perfect because Vic said he would be seeing Bob the following week, and would ask him about #19. Vic later replied that Bob confirmed making #19 (see photo). Thanks again Vic! I deeply appreciate your consideration!


Condition:

Sealed, and completely within shrink. No bare edges or corners.

Vinyl: Presumed to be M. The shrink is flat to the cover on both sides, so any warpage is extremely unlikely.

Cover: NM. Amazing condition! No wear, creases, or indentations. The lower corners each have a tiny degree of denting (can be seen in the photos)-- not nearly pronounced enough to bother me, and I'm super-anal about cover condition. Upper corners are sharp. I'm grading the cover NM because if all 4 corners are anything less than perfect, then M or M- cannot be the condition, in my book.


Provenance: To protect the original owner's privacy (and from their potentially hearing about this and feeling remorse), I won't go into too much detail: I purchased it in 1999 at the WFMU Record Fair in NYC. The person is well-known as someone who would have been gifted a copy at the time of its release. I can give full details to the buyer, if desired.


Some of you may recall seeing another GBV listing from a few months ago, by user "poi88", in which I mention the likelihood that this copy of Propeller may be up for sale in the near future. This account, "okrobot", is one I don't use frequently anymore, but I received an offer by which the final value fee of items selling for >$100 is capped at $10, so here I am!  I'll be relisting a couple of GBV LPs over on "poi88", and I'll mention this auction so you'll feel secure that I'm me!


Packaging: Preserving the current condition of this lp is super-important to me! I will pack it securely in a 13"x13" lp mailer, which will then be packed within a larger rectangular box with lots of padding. Nothing will happen to this lp, barring lightning strike, acts of war, etc...


Shipping:

USA: USPS Priority Mail, or ANY SECURE METHOD YOU DESIRE. In-person pickup is possible (and preferred).

International: This will cost more than the usual USD 22.50 for one lp. It should go via Registered Mail or FedEx, DHL, etc... We'll work it out so that you pay the actual shipping cost for a reasonably secure shipping method that we agree upon.


THANKS FOR LOOKING and I'll be happy to answer any questions you may have!
