Vinyl plays with crackles, clicks, and a few pops (play-graded). Cover looks good; a few creases near edges; light-scuffing, discoloration spots, and surface impressions (front/back); surface abrasions on front; slight discoloration spots on back. Inner-sleeve is original (Dolton ads); two seams partially split and tiny tears near top. Spine is easy-to-read with mild-wear. Shelf-wear along top/bottom-edge and corners. Split along bottom-edge with clear tape near center. Opening is crisp with signs of light use and divots. 1963 pressing. Blue label with address label on one side. (Not a cut-out.)
Play Telstar: The Lonely Bull, by Ventures, consists entirely of cover versions of popular instrumentals from the late 1950s to early 1960s (all of which reached the Top 15 on Billboard, including eleven Top Tens and three No. 1's) and became their highest charting album, peaking at No. 8 on Billboard and earning the band a gold record for over 500,000 copies sold.
