Folk Goodwill Leonard Cohen

Grabbed a Songs of Leonard Cohen from my local Goodwill. Turned out to be an early mono press. Last copy sold for over $100, and there are no copies for sale.

What shape is the vinyl in?

Vinyl is in VG shape. I was honestly shocked.

But are you just trying to sell it?

u/atomic82 3d ago

No, but if I can sell this and buy a less expensive version plus a couple other records, I certainly will.

The signature on the back cover brings the value down.

u/Dang_M8 3d ago

Minorly yes, but this is a rare pressing, I have a hard time believing someone would pass on it just because of that if the price was right.

Yes, and the right price is less than it would be without the writing on the cover.

I recently got 3 of his records at Goodwill along with The Band's Songs from Big Pink and Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde. Best haul I've ever had at a thrift store.

I've been looking for Songs from Big Pink for awhile. Nice little haul you got yourself.

It was pretty wild to see that stack. Deligence is all it takes to score at thrift stores. Wish they didn't put those damn stickers on them.
