EACH APPEAR TO BE ABOUT A "V+" (SOME MAYBE 1 STEP BELOW). IT'S BEEN SOME TIME SINCE I PLAYED THESE.

IN ADDITION YOU GET THE EMPTY ALBUM PICTURED THAT HOLDS 10 RECORDS AND IS IN GREAT CONDITION. THE RECORDS FROM THIS LOT WILL BE IN THAT ALBUM (NOT AN ADDITIONAL 10, OK?)

** I have played these in the past on my RCA Victor and the sounded fine to me for their age. The records may need cleaned. Record will be in a plain sleeve or some vintage sleeve, wrapped in plenty of bubble wrap. Due to the brittle nature of these shellac records, please let me know if there are ANY issues upon receipt and prior to negative feedback.

Record Grading System.

N (78) M (LP). As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).

N- (78) M- (LP). Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.

E+ (78) VG+ (LP). Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.

E  (78) VG (LP). Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.

E- (78) VG- (LP). Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.  LP: Some wear, scratches and scuffs, but no skipped or repeat grooves.

V+ (78) G+ LP. V+ is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced. LP: Below average with scuffs and scratches on fewer than half the tracks. No skips or repeat grooves.

V (78) G (LP). Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.

V- (78) G- (LP). Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level. LP: Lowest Grade. Audible scratches, etc. on more than half the tracks. Listening uncomfortable.

G+ (78). Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.

G (78). Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.

G- (78). Music still prominent, but wear and scatch damage extensive.

F (78). Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.

P (78). Unplayable.
