Description
So...I get a call from my local record store guy about someone wanting help selling some of their collection. The collector, wishing to remain anonymous...phoned and set up a drop off point in a shopping center parking lot. Not saying much, boxes of records are exchanged along with a list of reserve prices and the follow up meeting is scheduled.
This ought to be fun...here we go.
Up for auction is a 1929 Blues 78 RPM record by Blind Lemon Jefferson on Paramount 12872.
The sides are Bed Springs Blues & Yo Yo Blues.
Tracks recorded with NO filtering or noise reduction can be heard here.

78 RPM Grading System:
- NM = near new condition
- E = barely played, extremely close to near new condition
- VG = played, but not abused condition, should play very well, may have light scratches, scuffs
- G = well played, but should play pretty well, will have deeper scratches, scuff; may have some background noise, scratches, scuffs, wear
- P = well used, pretty bad condition, lots of background noise
45 RPM Grading System:
- SS (New Still Sealed) = New store stock or otherwise unopened, factory fresh product
- NM = Essentially new or near new with only one or two small insignificant visual anomalies
- E = Still a very nice record with all or nearly all of its original gloss but may have a few more light surface marks, hairlines, needle tracks or the like which won't materially effect play
- VG+ = A really nice specimen, but used record that may have a series of light scuffs or scratches. It may play with a few pops, but has no serious problems. Still glossy with a lot of life left in it
- VG = An acceptable, well-played record that still should sound good, but may have moderate surface noise, pops, etc.
- G = Not actually good at all but probably will play through but with much in a way of surface noise, pops, crackles, etc. Still, will have no cracks, chips or the like
This record grades G+/VG- with more than decent shine remaining. There is a pressing indention at a little past 3 o'clock position in the Bed Springs pic above that tracks fine at minimal pressure. There is also a half inch tight, non moving crack (see pic) that barely adds, if at all, anything to the ambient sound of the record. Still a good player. Please listen to audio here for better discernment.
Records will be very securely packaged for shipment. Please let me know if you would like them insured.
I try my best to describe and grade these as accurately as possible...I will gladly accept returns if you are not satisfied.
International bidders, Please read eBay's Global Shipping Policy, that this auction uses, before placing a bid. Import charges, if applicable, are apparently calculated using the final bid price.
