Mean Old World/ Take A Chance

This is a new, unplayed promo copy from the Louise Neal 45 Collection. This obscure single's A side is a definite winner for Northern Soul fans. Note: This beautiful promo 45 has Near Mint labels, reflecting a light promo stamp on the A side (see scan); the labels are otherwise Mint. The vinyl grades very close to Mint in appearance, with a touch of storage wear. Although the "dead wax" leading into the music has light vinyl surface noise, it's inaudible once the music starts, so I'm grading the audio Mint.
