This album also includes a mail order Julie London pamphlet (see pictures) with postmarked enveloped from Hollywood, CA.
Sleeve grades in Strong VG+ condition. Almost NM condition... Excellent original color/gloss and the laminate is in pristine condition. Sharp corners, almost no edgewear, just a few slight dings at the corners. A small '45' appears to be written inside the gatefold in pencil. Truly a collector's quality sleeve.
Vinyl grades in VG+ condition. Plays through crisp and clean, excellent sound quality for a 70 year old record. There are a handful of surface marks/light scratches on each side of the vinyl visible under magnification/bright direct light. Overall a very clean vinyl disc for its age. Labels are pristine and runouts are clear.
