Description
Louis Armstrong Paris 1934 Session
RARE Take of St Louis Blues (Matrix 1478wpp) Not issued on 78 in USA / Tiger Rag.
Brunswick(G) A9683 - Condition Plays V+/V See below. There is a very small (3mm) edge chip on side 1 not affecting play - also there are faint light 'spokes' on both sides that I have never seen before on a 78 but not affecting play. If you want to hear side 1, give me your e-mail address and I will send you a wav. file.
Unfortunately, posting a single record is expensive but if you combine with others you win, the postal cost per record is considerably less.
Total cost of postage and packing will be £4.95 for 1 record and £5.95 for a maximum of 5 in one box by Royal Mail. Can send up to 10 records via Hermes in UK, check with me for quote. Prices for non - UK destinations upon request. If buying more than one record wait for me to invoice you with the inclusive amount. I will hold onto other records to combine postage.
All records will be packed between thick cardboard in new 12" x 12" x 4" strong cardboard boxes to ensure safe arrival.
Conditions are graded aurally (how they play) using the Universally recognised VJM Record Grading System
N As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).
N- Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
E+ Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
E Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
E- Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches
V+ 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.
V Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.
V- 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.
G+ Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
G Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.
G- Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive.
F Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.
P Unplayable
