CLE Magazine No 5 including the most awesome Cleveland Squawks Double CD - Published sometime in 1997

When this was issued, I operated a mail-order record store and had a big stack of these to sell. Of course I kept one for myself. This copy has been safely stored for the past 25 years. When new, I placed the CDs and artwork in a double CD jewel case. The jewel case was not included with the magazine. The CDs were originally in a double poly sleeve and the artwork was loose.

The magazine is in near mint condition with only very minimal wear. You might find very minor wear, but the magazine looks great. The poly sleeve that originally housed the CDs produced light scuff marks on the CDs. I can assure you that the CDs have been well cared for - the scuff marks are original issue. To be on the safe side, I gave the CDs a spin from start to finish (with great enjoyment) just before offering this for sale. The CDs both played perfectly and beyond that - they kicked ass as they were designed to do. Each CD holds about an hour and 14 minutes of music and there isn't a throw-away tune in the whole lot. See the photos section for a full track listing.

Artists included on the 2 CDs are Rollercoaster, The Backmonkeys, The Downside Special, Cruel, Cruel Moon, Ugly Beauty, Satan's Satellites, The Revelers, Einstein's Secret Orchestra, Gem, Quazi Modo, My Dad Is Dead, Ditch, The Aggravators, New Salem Witch Hunters, Home and Garden, Chump, Red Giant, Biblical Proof Of UFOs, Duvalby Brothers, Disengage, Craw and Pufftube.

The magazine itself is wondrous as well. It measures approximately 8 1/2 inches x 7 inches. The front cover art is by Derek Hess. Back cover art is by Clay Parker. The back cover is printed upside-down. The pages are not numbered so I counted them by hand and came up with 80 pages plus the cover. My count could be incorrect but close.

Magazine content includes stuff about a lot of the artists on the CDs. There are pieces on some Cleveland record labels. There is a piece on Cleveland rock poster artists with lots of examples. There is an excerpt from the Michael DeCapite then unpublished novel "Through The Windshield. There's lots more too.

There are several inserts that all look real nice. The CD tray card and a front booklet were placed in the aforementioned double CD case by me. There is the original double poly sleeve for the CDs. There is a sticker. There is a 4 page sample copy of Vol.1, No. 1 of "We Don't Do Reviews". And there is a little blue paper for Cheese Sandwich Revival. 

Please do check out the photos to help with your evaluation of condition and content.

This will ship well protected in an appropriate box with insurance and possibly signature tracking. Magazines can't be shipped using the cheaper Media Mail rate so the shipping cost is a little higher than you might expect.

For items to be delivered outside of the USA, buyers should be aware that any customs fees / taxes that are required by your government are your responsibility and are not covered by the cost of the item or the shipping charges.

I promise to pack your item securely, no matter what it is. Everything I ship gets packed well, so don't worry about a thing. 

If appropriate I will add insurance coverage. Sometimes I will add signature tracking (USA) when your item is shipped. Signature tracking ensures that the postal service doesn't leave your valuable item unattended on your doorstep out in the sun or rain - it has to be handed over face to face. If you order something rare and/or worth a bit, be prepared to have to accept delivery in person.

When multiple items are shipped together, I can almost always give you a better deal on the shipping cost compared to the individual shipping costs. I promise to give you the best rate possible based on the items purchased and the shipping method required.

For "Buy It Now" items (most of what I offer), simply add each item that you want to your shopping cart. When ready to commit to buying, request a total from me from your cart and I'll send an invoice as soon as I can. Since I'm not a computer and I do other things like sleep and take the dogs for walks, you might not receive an immediate response, but I will get back to you as soon as possible. If you decide to pay for items you want individually instead of requesting a total from the shopping cart, I will promptly send back whatever money I can for a shipping discount.
  • Some items are not compatible for combined shipping. 
  • Combining shipping might require changing the shipping method or increase packaging materials expense. 
  • A few items that I offer are not eligible for combined shipping. 
  • Of course it is ok to ask about combined shipping costs up front. You have to tell me exactly what you intend to buy and where it will be shipped. I can't always give an exact cost, but I can at least give you an estimate.
  • I reserve the right to limit the number or total value of items that I'm willing to send in a single package.
  • For international sales I use ebay's international shipping program. Combined shipping depends on the ebay shipping program rules in place at the time of shipment. It is possible that no combined shipping discount is available for international orders.
