Description

This lot contains ten 10-inch 78 RPM records featuring various dance bands and popular singers, all, I believe, from the 1920's and 1930's. 

All ten records showed up for the first picture, then they are shown in pairs or groups of three, both sides, in the following order:

Victor # 19840 - "Who" and "Sunny" by George Olsen and his Music. 

Victor # 18536 - "Arabian Nights" by the Waldorf-Astoria Dance Orchestra; and "Sand Dunes" by Nicholas Orlando's Orchestra.

Banner # 33299 - "Ev'ry Day" and "Sweet Music" by Will Osborne and his Orchestra. 

Banner # 32504 - "Same Old Moon" and "Why Little Boy Blue Was Blue" by Harold White and his Orchestra. 

Velvet Tone # 2093-V - "Nobody's Using It Now" and "Blue, Turning Grey Over You" by Barney Trimble and his Oklahomans. 

Cameo # 923 - "Somebody's Lonely" and "If I Knew I'd Find You" by the Davis Saxophone Octette. 

Van Dyke # 71785 - "If I Had a Talking Picture of You" by Vincent Lopez and his Orchestra; and "Dreaming of You" by the Louisville Master Players.

Harmony # 445-H - "Charmaine" by Frank Farrell and his Greenwich Village Inn Orchestra; and "A Little Girl - A Little Boy - A Little Moon" by Lou Gold and his Orchestra.

Brunswick # 2024 - "Echoes" and "Just Like the Rose" by the All Star Trio. 

Regal # 8149 - "Mary Lou" by the Woodmansten Inn Orchestra; and "Susie, Oh Susie, Why Won't You Marry Me" by Six Black Diamonds.

They are all in used and worn condition, some still nice and shiny, others not as shiny as they used to be, and all with visible surface scuffs and scratches and dull spots. If I had to rank them, the four most heavily played would be the George Olsen, the Will Osborne, the Van Dyke and the Regal. he only "unplayable" side was  "Ev'ry Day" by Will Osborne - a deep needle gouge caused the needle to stick and repeat in the middle. The other 21 sides all played through without skipping or repeating on my Audio-Technica turntable, but with varying degrees of background noise, including some pops and clicks and some passages of ticking or swishing. Because of variations in tracking ability, filtering technology and needle weights, I can offer no guarantees as to how well they will play on your equipment. Please also check the pictures for any label damage or inscriptions or stickers.

Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying. Customs fees are normally charged by the shipping company or collected when you pick the item up. These fees are not additional shipping charges. We won't under-value merchandise or mark the item as a gift on customs forms. Doing that is against U.S. and international laws.   COMBINED SHIPPING: See our seller list for other interesting and unusual items, in fact bid on several and you might save on shipping and handling. If you buy multiple items, and if it's feasible and cost-effective for us to ship the items together, we will gladly consider requests to combine shipping at a reduced cost. Just e-mail us, and we can provide combined shipping cost estimates on a case-by-case basis. Depending on weight and other considerations, we typically offer full shipping rate for the first item, then 50 cents or $1.00 per item. And if you are purchasing multiple items, please make the payment as a single payment, rather than trying to pay for each item separately. Oh, and this may sound obvious, but we can't reduce the shipping charges for items on which we offer free shipping.
INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING COSTS: If the eBay auto-calculator is not responding, or if you think our shipping costs are too high, please contact us prior to bidding to determine your shipping options and costs. Repeat, prior to bidding, please. 
FEEDBACK: Because of abuses we've experienced in the past, we have totally given up on the eBay feedback system, so we neither give nor expect feedback. Please, therefore, do not contact us after the auction asking us to leave feedback. If you ever have a problem with an item you purchase from us, please contact us directly about it before giving negative feedback or seller ratings, and especially before invoking eBay's dreaded Grand Tribunal in processes like "Return Requests" or "Opening an Item Not as Described Case." No one is perfect, and we occasionally mis-describe something, or an item arrives late or gets damaged in the mail, but we are always quick to respond to a problem and set it straight in the most mutually agreeable way.
