Product Information

(C45s)I Built My World Around A Dream/ I Didn't Know I Was Crying by Damita Jo
Label: Mercury 71929 Year: 1962
Picture sleeve included: M-
Condition: M $28.00

This is a new, unplayed stock copy from the

collection, in its original picture sleeve. This single would have had better luck, airplay and sales-wise, if programmers had plugged the wonderful, Belford Hendricks-arranged ballad on the B side... it's a definite keeper! Note: This copy has pristine labels and audio, and the vinyl (styrene) is graded Near Mint to reflect some very light storage wear. The Near Mint picture sleeve has some tiny color-flecks on the left and right edges.
