 Thank you for looking at my record auctions!

This auction is for an Original pressing 1960 Blue Note Record. This is Lou Donaldson's, Sunny Side Up -with  RVG + an ear mark in both sides of the dead wax.  Marked bn-lp 4036 A on one side and 4036 B on side 2.
The Cover is marked "43 West 61st St., New york 23."
The star of this particular show is the condition of the Cover which is an easy Excellent ( E ) grade.
The Vinyl I would grade as : Very Good ( VG)
I have cleaned the record only and have not played it.

These records are only becoming more collectible by the day- and finding a cover in this shape is a rare event indeed.

Please let me know if you have any questions or would like any more pictures prior to making a bid. All items I sell are "as is". I do my best to describe every item accurately, however, please examine the pictures closely as they are of the actual item you are bidding on. I'm really easy to work with- and will find an amicable solution to any issue for any item I do sell. I stand behind all of my auctions - please feel free to check my feedback.

The record grading system I use is:

• Near Mint(NM ) Looks new and unplayed. Very high vinyl luster and no noticeable label defects. Sounds new. With 45rpm records, this does not always mean there is no surface noise at all.

• Excellent (E) Looks almost new, but has some minor flaws such as a drill hole; unobtrusive writing on label (e.g., an X on a promo copy); minor scuffing on vinyl; minor color flaking on label, or other insignificant flaws that only slightly detract from visual appeal. May have some minor surface noise, but nothing distracting.

• VERY GOOD (VG) There may be light scuffing and some of the original vinyl luster may be lost. The vinyl and label may appear used, but well cared for. Records may have some more obvious flaws that are not visually degrading such as a sticker on the label; more noticeable writing on the label; scuffing and minor scratches on the vinyl; or minor discoloration of the label. There may be very minor warping of the vinyl. There may be a slight scratch not affecting play.

• GOOD (G) Record has visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, minor surface scratches, groove wear, and audible surface noise. Appears well used but not abused. May have a few major flaws, such as scratches, label tears, or stickers, and/or writing.

• FAIR (F) Appears well used and somewhat abused. Audio is not great due to surface noise and scratches. The record may have a stick or a skip. Records in this condition are those you might purchase to fill a hole in your collection until a better copy comes along.

• POOR (P) Well played with little luster and significant surface noise, but still not cracked or broken. Record likely skips and/or sticks. Typically so bad looking that a true “collector” would just toss it out. More useful as a Frisbee. I try not to sell records in this condition.

With a + or – indicating it’s in between 2 grades.

Unless otherwise stated- all vinyl has been visually graded only.
