Description

The Skyliners Calico CLP 3000 LP. Original heavy vinyl deep groove mono pressing with white, blue, and yellow labels from 1959.

Condition - Grading is Visual Under Bright Light

The cover is a very strong VG, downgraded from VG+ due to several inches of cracking/splitting on the top left edge. The front cover graphics are beautiful, vivid and striking. The corners show some wear. Top and bottom seams have light wear. The printing on the spine is sharp. The back cover slick has some surface wear and age toning. A pretty cover despite the flaws, classic 50's jet pose.

LP is a solid glossy VG+ with light sleeve wear and hairlines, nothing feelable or serious on either side. Labels are clean and beautiful. Overall a solid example, definitely above average.

Overall not perfect or NM but a solid collectable copy of an rare classic doo-wop LP. Check out my other auctions for more rare and interesting records. Winning auctions may be combined to save postage cost. Check out my feedback for results of recent rare record auctions.

Grading

Grading is SS (still sealed), NM, VG+, VG. The myriad of grading systems on Ebay is a good indicator of the subjective nature of grading. In my opinion NM is close to perfect with one or two very minor flaws, VG+ is above average and collectable and VG is average used condition but probably the best choice for playing. I'm a collector and try to describe LPs as accurately as possible, the way I would want them described to me. The pictures should at least give a good indication of the condition of the covers and labels. Please see my seller feedback for comments on my grading. If you don't agree with how I'm calling a record that is your privilege but with all respect please don't bid.
