I'll add this as a comment, as it's not verifiable, but being a child of the `60s, I can note that retail price on popular single rock LP records tended to range between $12.99-$18.99, with double LPs in the $24.99 range in the southern CA. area. Discounted prices tended to range between $9.99-$14.99 on single LPs. Source: Stickers on various LPs purchased from the Wherehouse in Palos Verdes, CA from the mid-60s through early `70s. :-) rico |

WOW! I didn't realize prices for LPs were so high in Southern California during the 1960s. The retail price on LPs here in the Midwest were no more than $3.98-$4.98 for mono and $5.98-$6.98 for stereo. However, most of the time stores would discount anywhere from $1 to $2 off these prices. Starting about 1972, several record companies starting to put price codes on the spines on their Lps. Source: Stickers on various LPs purchased from Woolworth's, E.J. Korvette, Sears during the late 1960s- early 1970s. |

I strongly question rico's answer, and support romos'. I'm backed up by the Usenet post at http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=lang_en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&selm=1993Feb1.155118.23537%40bilver.uucp&rnum=1, by Bill Vermillion, who seems fairly knowledgable -- he runs this website. http://www.bilver.com/ |
