Description: For sale is a 45 RPM vinyl single by Donna Summer titled "Hot Stuff b/w Journey To The Centre Of Your Heart", originally released in 1979 by Casablanca Records. I bought this used, professionally cleaned it on my VPI HW-17 machine and immediately put it into an archival inner sleeve, then into a storage box for 45 RPM singles, that was kept under optimum conditions for both temperature and humidity until today. There is only a generic inner sleeve that was included when I bought it. In the dead wax, between the labels and end of the tracks, is etched the matrix numbers "SP-3/SP-2", followed by "AZ BG" and a Pressing plant ID number 49 on the label, indicating that this record was mastered by Brian Gardner at Allen Zentz Mastering of San Clemente, California before early stampers were used to make this record at Specialty Records Corporation's pressing plant, located in Olyphant, Pennsylvania These are hallmarks of state-of-the-art engineering, sought after by collectors and music lovers for their superior sound qualities. The vinyl is visually graded as Near Mint, with surfaces that are shiny and bright, in a like-new condition, without any sleeve marks, surface scratches or scuffs. I'm play grading Side One as Near Mint without any surface noise. I'm play grading Side Two as Excellent because of occasional super low levels of surface noise. Both sides play all the way through with out any pops, skips or lock-ups from start to finish. You would be hard pressed to find a copy of this record in this condition, especially a Specialty pressing. This would be a welcome addition to anyone's collection. Please read all descriptions and look at all pictures, as this is a final sale and I do not accept returns. Thank you for viewing my listing. I've been collecting records for more that 50 years and always clean them before and after playback to keep them in a pristine condition. I try to describe them to the best of my ability and use record grading guidelines like the Goldmine rating system as reference. Since retiring, I've begun to sell my very esoteric collection via my Ebay store (bobsanalogemporium) and will offer discounts for multiple sales. I always pack the items for sale in an archival inner sleeve, then put them in either a Kraft paper bubble mailer with sturdy cardboards or cardboard record mailers, always with the records separate from the jackets or its original picture sleeve, then sandwiched between sturdy cardboards before shipping. Please read all descriptions carefully and note all pictures before-hand, as I do not accept returns. Please visit my Ebay store for records, 45's, cassette tapes and comics of all different genres. They're predominately Near Mint. Thank you viewing my listing.
