Comments:
Here is a nice batch of records issued from 1939 to 1951 Most of the records are good looking, but I did not clean or play test. The records are sold as is. I wouldn't have included any of these in this lot if I didn't think they were winners in some sense. You never know for sure how well any record will play until you actually play it though and it's possible you might find a clunker or two in this lot.
Cleaning before playing is highly recommended. Expect to see some dust, dirt, grime, spots and maybe occasional fingerprints on the records since I didn't spend the time to clean that stuff off.
What Is Included: Please see the photos for song titles and other details. Artists included in this lot (with release year and record grading) are:
Visual Grading Notes For The Records:
The visual-only record gradings are listed above. I mentioned a few defects worth noting above, but made no attempt to catalog defects for each record. Examine photos closely for the big picture. Expect to see decent gloss (especially once cleaned) and some surface scuffs on most of these records. Occasionally you'll see some surface scratches, groove wear, edge flakes, slight warps or insignificant lams that don't affect playability. You can see the condition of the labels in the photos section. These are all decent quality records based on appearance - some better than others. All of the records are sleeved in kraft paper sleeves except for four which are housed in record company sleeves which are inside of clear poly sleeves. Although I use new sleeves when needed, assume the sleeves are ones that have housed the records for a long while. The sleeves might show some amount of wear like bends, creases, writing, marks or even small tears. I didn't notice any seam splits on the sleeves.
Play Test Notes and Tips For Best Play Results: I did not play test these records. (It's not that I never played any of them. It's just that it may have been 30 years ago when I listened.) Some will sound better than others. Expect varying levels of record surface noise (like crackle, ticks, clicks in some cases) and you'll probably not be disappointed.
Shipping Notes: There will be an abundance of padding to help ensure safe travels. I'm an expert record packer, if I do say so myself! Rest assured that I know what I'm doing when it comes to packing shellac records for safe shipping. I always pack carefully, but will be extra cautious with this batch of records.
