Description

Tonette TNT.703 (Extremely rare South African 78. Released 1960 as far as I know.)
Sleeve: G+  (generic sleeve)
Vinyl: Looks G+ plays VG- (I have test-played this record at 78 rpm but had to do so with a 33 rpm stylus, so please bear this in mind as it could affect the grading I've given.) It plays through both sides with very light surface noise, whether the result will be the same (as in surface noise) with the correct stylus,I can't say. I have included photographs under strong light to give an informed idea of the record surface (under strong light, scuffing, hairlines etc). I couldn't detect any pops/crackle). There is a small spot on the surface of side one about (1mm x 1mm) that does not affect play. I have looked at it under a magnifying glass and whatever it is, is not inside the groove itself. The labels on both sides have "sample, not for sale" stickers attached. These labels are not paper, but of the sticky tape variety. Given its brittle nature, the record will be packed accordingly.
Item will be posted with tracking number. Postage @ $25 via airmail with tracking number. Add an extra $7.50 per additional LP record or $3.50 per extra seven single. Please note: expected delivery time varies from 7 to 30 days depending on the receiving country (in some extreme cases even longer due to customs in certain countries (USA for example).
