Well soon I've I just ordered a copy of Charles Tylers 'Saga of the Outlaws'. In great condition but the sleeve is full of ugly library stickers. That's why I only paid 35 euros where EU based copies on Discogs go for 100 euro plus.

An outstanding platter having an high price tag (and not only because rarity) .... a pity you have to swallow this price increase though ....

Well there we go. Of course there is a little decolorization and residue visible but it looks pretty damn good. And most importantly: the vinyl itself is in absolute mint condition! So I conclude: for 35 euros, I made a pretty sweet deal. (That doesn’t happen to me too often…)

Nice one.

When I was a music librarian I used to put lots of stickers and barcodes on sleeves and labels just like that.  I also saw how the public used or misused the LPs so I think you're definitely lucky if that came from a public library. Or Charles Tyler just wasn't popular...

I haven't listened to it in ages, maybe I should
