Description
I inherited this Lp from my dad, who was a jazz dj on an underground FM station that he and several other friends established in the 1960's. He frequently brought home promo copies. This is one of those. The pics show a cutout circle in the lower right corner and inside there are 3 stamps "Property of WCMF" inside the gatefold cover. (the radio station was eventually sold and is now a classic rock entity.)
The disk looks very clean, pretty shiny, grooves are excellent to near mint. The pics of the labels show some very pale brown spots. They are more prevalent on the 2nd side and only really noticeable in good light. There are some extremely light scratches, probably from the sleeve that are very hard to see as well. I would say the cover is VG+. Record will be shipped in proper Lp mailer with stiffeners, poly sleeve and corner protection.
