Description
THIS IS A "TOP COPY" OF THE SINGLE IN PRISTINE NM CONDITION. THE BUYER WILL ALSO RECEIVE 2 PUBLICITY PHOTOS, ORIGINALS NOT COPIES, THAT WERE SENT OUT TO RADIO STATIONS WITH THE SINGLE. THESE ITEMS ARE FROM THE ESTATE OF THE LATE MANAGER AND PRODUCER OF THE SINGER. THIS IS PERHAPS THE MOST DIFFICULT TO FIND OF ALL THE NORTHERN MONSTERS OUT THERE. OVER THE PAST 30 YEARS ONLY A HANDFUL OF COPIES HAVE BEEN OFFERED. I WAS RECENTLY WITH THE LATE MANAGER'S SON AND WE STARTED TO TALK ABOUT HIS DAD'S YEARS IN THE RECORD BUSINESS. WHEN I MENTION WHAT PRICES THIS RECORD HAS SOLD FOR IN RECENT YEARS and IT'S GROWING POPULARITY HE DECIDE TO START LOOKING THROUGH SOME OF HIS DADS STUFF. HE UNEARTHED 2 MINTY COPIES THAT I AGREED TO SELL FOR HIM. I DECIDED THAT I WILL KEEP ONE, AND SELL ONE. IF YOU ARE A SERIOUS NORTHERN COLLECTOR HERE IS YOUR CHANCE. I WILL NOT PLAY IT BUT I WILL GUARANTEE THAT THE COPY IS 100% PERFECT OR YOUR MONEY BACK. ALL OVERSEAS ORDERS WILL HAVE TO SHIP "REGISTERED MAIL". THANKS!!
SELLERS NOTE: WHEN THE CONSIGNING PARTY AND I SPOKE ABOUT HIS FATHER HE HAD THE FOLLOWING RECOLLECTION - "My Dad was a perfectionist. He believed in his artist and always wanted to make sure he did his best for them. Perhaps this is why he kept escalating the negotiations with the major labels. He often required more than they were willing to give and for that reason several remained unsigned. I remember him bringing home the promo copies and going through them, one by one, to make sure the copies he sent to the radio stations were absolutely perfect." WELL THAT IS WHAT WE HAVE HERE- ONE OF HIS REMAINING 100% PERFECT COPIES (with the "virtue" etching in the dead wax-see pic #3) ALONG WITH BOTH VIV'S "Head Shot" and "Full Body Shot". THE PHOTOS ARE BOTH ORIGINALS "FIRSTS" WITH THE PHOTOGRAPHERS KEY SLIDE, ON THE FRONT and STAMP, ON THE BACK-see pic #5,#6 & #7
5/22/14-REDUCED $500 from $2,500.00 to $1,999.00
I WILL CONSIDER ANY SERIOUS OFFER.
