Thank you for your interest. This is a valuable EP single record from the popular music world 61 years ago. The Animals, as you know, "The House of the Rising Sun" (Side A), which took the #1 spot on the US hit parade. I purchased this record at a music store during my student days and kept it carefully stored. However, as expected, the plastic bag and other materials have succumbed to age after more than half a century, so I will pack it with a transparent sheet. Also, I do not have a playback audio device (record player), so I cannot check it. However, after cleaning it with a cleaner and visually inspecting it, I see no warping or noticeable scratches. (Although I cannot guarantee this.) I would like to pass it on to someone who will cherish it going forward.
