Description
This listing is for seven 12", 78 RPM shellac record albums. A list of each album is provided below. Five of the albums are part of a "Gems from Gilbert & Sullivan Operettas" boxed set.
NOTE: In regard to the Perry Como album (RCA Victor 28-0436), there is a significant amount haze on the B side ("The Lord's Prayer").
ADDITIONAL NOTE: The original paper album sleeves for the Perry Como and Paul Whiteman albums are in a very worn/deteriorating condition and have separation on both sides.
I inherited a large collection of vintage record albums that appear to have been reasonably well taken care of back when they were being played. Some have clearly been played more than others. The records were stored in a basement for a long time, and I do not have the time or equipment to test them. I have made a good faith best effort to provide quality photos of both the A and B sides using the only camera I have, which is a five year old smartphone. Aside from the issues cited above, I did not observe any other cracks or chips while I was photographing the records in this set. That said, aside from what look like manufacturing imperfections, there are fingerprints, abrasions, and scratches that appear to be consistent with normal usage.
