Hi! You're looking at an excellent overall condition LP Vinyl Set which is a FIRST PRESSING and MONO issue 1956 RCA Victor Records issue and a self-titled album by singer JULIUS LA ROSA, best known for being fired on-air by television and radio host ARTHUR GODFREY in 1953. The LP is an RCA Victor Records issue and a 1st PRESSING and "New Orthophonic" High Fidelity Monophonic copy with the serial number LPM-1299; it was made in The United States in 1956.

This LP Set is in excellent condition and the vinyl is in VG++ overall condition with a very small scratch on the second track of side one, a few hairline marks on the last tracks of side one, and some light paper scuffs and should play extremely well, with some light pops possible in a couple of spots but no other significant imperfections; the cover is in beautiful NEAR MINT condition with a tiny vintage price sticker on the upper right corner of the back cover and a very slight thumb crease on the center right edge of the front cover but NO other significant flaws--it's NOT a cutout! The ORIGINAL RCA INNER SLEEVE advertising other album releases is also included and has a slight center split on the lower center edge and a couple of slight creases on one of the upper edges but is in beautiful shape otherwise.

Very Good Plus (VG+) A record that has had a number of plays and may have some superficial scuffs, possibly mild to moderate spindle marks and / or possibly hairline scratches on the vinyl, which may produce some intermittent pops and possibly very light background noise.

Very Good (VG) A record that has generally been well cared for, but has seen a fair amount of play, with some scuffing. hairline scratches, spindle marks and / or light scratches. Should play through well, with the possibility of more pops and more background noise.

Very Good Minus (VG-) A record with significant scuffs, scratches, and spindle marks that should play through with moderate pops and surface noise, possibly of some duration.

Good (G) A record with will play through, but with significant pops, substantial background noise, and possibly intermittent skipping.

Poor (P) A record with MAJOR issues that will interfere with play, and will possibly be unplayable in part due to damage (I'll only offer an LP in this condition if it's an extreme rarity and / or for cover art display purposes).

A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this vinyl LP!
