Description
Here is a very desirable Spike Jones children's record from 1953. "Captain" is one of George Rock's kid-voice specialties--more fun than some of the others he was doing at this time! "A Toot and a Whistle and a Plunk and a Boom" is a song from the Walt Disney cartoon of similar title. This side has a vocal by The Mellomen. Thurl Ravenscroft speaks briefly just before the wrapup! I'd grade this E- visually, E aurally. Usual light scuffs, no huge damage. Scuff at start of Captain sounds slightly. Scuff near end of Toot not audible at all on my machine. Original sleeve has no damage, no split edges, but slight creases at bottom corners. No writing anywhere on this! A nice rare gem for the Spike Jones hobbyist!
SPECIAL NOTE: My friend, who's doing the photography for me, has had trouble getting good images. "Toot" label is NOT faded--flash did that, and we couldn't see washout on small camera viewer. Both labels are fine, with slightly dark circles near label rims. (Manufacturing defect, perhaps?)
I have decades of experience in handling these, so careful packing is assured. eBay's blanket shipping charge as shown is probably not accurate for my shipments. Winners: Please wait for my invoice before submitting payment. I take all packages to the post office to detemine mailing costs, then I get back to you with the invoice total. Shipments are sent out within 4 business days of receiving your PayPal payment. Combine items for same-address shipping? Oh, yes--I am always glad to do that to save you money!
I am licensed to collect and submit the New York State Sales Tax for all sales which come under New York's tax law rules. Buyer agrees that this figure will be added to the shipping charge where applicable.
