This is one of the nicest original pressings of "Donna/La Bamba" I've yet had to offer in the store since opening in 2001! It's a beautiful copy of the first pressing with a solid green label and black print, with the label title in an "old english" typeface. The A side is ranked #175 in the Marsh 1001, and the B side is at #92. Note: This 45 record has Near Mint labels with only a light touch of storage wear. Although the vinyl (styrene) has some surface scuffing, the audio is so close to perfect I'm calling it Mint! (This scan is a representative image from our archives.)
