FRANK SINATRA - Frank Sinatra Sings The Select Harold Arlen MONO LP VINYL - **EXTREMELY RARE** PROMO COPY
Capitol Records - Australian Mono Press LP 1964 - W 20843 - Recalled album, never distributed or made available.
OK Here it is...quite possibly the rarest Frank Sinatra record ever released. For the devoted Frank Sinatra collectors
this would most likely be considered one of the Holy Grails.
Overseas postage with tracking $30 [I will most likely cover this cost]
Just message if you require any more information or pressing info.
Many Sinatra fans believed for many years that this record did not exist as it did not appear for sale. For reasons never explained or understood, the record was withdrawn from sale before it was to be distributed from the manufactures. A few managed to escape, but never appeared for sale. Only 4 or so have been put up for sale in the past 10 years.
It is believed that only a hand-full of these still exist. What makes this one even more RARE than those that have previously sold is that this particular version is an incredibly rare PROMO COPY!!!!
The outer sleeve is in very good condition. No tears or spine rips/damage etc. Some very faint ringwear markings on the front lower corner and outer left on rear cover. There is a small catalogue sticker in the upper left corner of the front cover [It will most likely come off if soaked perhaps, but I will not attempt this and leave it for the new owner to persue].
There has been someones name written neatly in faint blue pen on the upper rear cover but does not stand out greatly.

The Record still retains a near new shine, with no writing on label, no tears or damage and no sign of spindle wear. There are some very light surface marks or scuffs which do not affect the audio as the sound is clear & loud. There are no jumps or skips. A little surface noise/crackle is there at times but hardly noticeable. I will carefully put it through the Spin Clean once more before being shipped which will most likely remove most if not all residual surface noise.
Starting bid is high, but it is $350 less than what the most recent one went for. Plus this of course is an even RARER PROMO PRESS so your chances of finding another one in this condition would be nigh on impossible.
