Description

Hello.  Thanks for checking out my auction.  After several years of debate with my wife, I have finally caved in and have agreed to part with my precious record collection.  The majority of my records were bought while a teenager and into my early 20’s.  During that time period I acquired a couple thousand albums.  It just didn’t seem right to discard them at the local thrift store as my wife suggested, so here I am selling them on ebay.  That way I will get the satisfaction of knowing they are at least going to someone who will love them as I once did (and still do)!  I assure you they were all handled with great care and appreciation. 

 

A very nice rare, hard to find album from The Baroques.  Recorded in 1967, the song Mary Jane was banned from airplay in many markets.  This is a real collectors item.  Most dealers would rate this Near mint to Mint.   I'm not sure how to rate a 40 year old record but this one is truly a gem.  I'm sure my rating below is conservative.

 

The Baroques, 1967 Chess Records LPS 1516.  Vinyl= VG++ almost excellent, Jacket= VG++ has a slight curve to it (just from age, the record is not warped and looks great) and shows very ring wear on the front.

 

 

 

Below is a grading chart I created to help you identify the quality of each record.   Once again, I’m not a professional dealer.  I have graded each record the best I can.  Please email me any specific questions you might have.  I want you to be satisfied.

 

Sealed:      Still in the shrink wrap and never played.

 

 

Excellent:    Vinyl - Has been played a few times but vinyl looks shiny new and appears to be scratch and fingerprint free. 

 

                        Jacket – Looks new and does not show any shelf wear.

 

 

Very Good:   Vinyl – It might have a light scuff or small surface scratch that you could only see if you hold it under a bright light.  It is expected to play almost perfectly.

 

                        Jacket – No rips but might show minor ring wear from storage.

 

 

Good:              Vinyl – Obviously been played but still will play good.  It might have minor scratches and scuffs.                             

 

                        Jacket – It shows wear from years on the shelf, corners might show wear.

 

 

Fair:                Vinyl - Plays but has lots of flaws.
