These 45s are NOT in the original photo sleeves -- they are in green paper radio station sleeves.  These records have a few very light scratches and/or scuffs, but overall are in good+ condition and play nicely.  They are both marked "PROMOTION RECORD" and "NOT FOR SALE."

Delaware Broadcasting Company, previous owner/operator of 1450 WILM is selling its collection of promotional copies of 78, 33, and 45 records.

All of the 78s are in radio station paper sleeves, with a few exceptions (as noted) still in the original record label packaging.  Overall, the 78s are in good to very good condition unless otherwise noted.  In the case of a set of records, the 78 pictured is a fair representation of all the records in the set.  Most of these records, however, are in need of cleaning, i.e., finger prints and dust.  A radio station label has been glued to the record label on the A and B sides.  We have not attempted to remove these and would prefer to leave that to someone who knows best how to handle this procedure.  In some cases, the radio station file number may have been stamped on the record label or written on it in ink.

We also have a small collection of EPs that are in their original photo sleeves.  Most of these (records and sleeves) are in good+ to very good condition, and will be noted accordingly in the detailed description.

Most of the 45s appear to be in very good condition, and several are in the original photo sleeve.

All of the 33s are in their original photo sleeves, and many of these are still sealed.  A large portion of these LPs are radio station / disc jockey copies, and this will be noted in the detailed description.

If you would like additional information regarding a specific record in a set, please don't hesitate to contact us.  Thank you, and good luck bidding.

Shipping Details:  The 78s are removed from the radio station sleeves, each record is "sandwiched" between corrugated cardboard, and then wrapped as a group (up to six records) in two layers of bubble wrap.  33s and 45s are removed from their sleeves and wrapped in two layers of bubble wrap.  The 33s that are still sealed are, of course, left in their sleeves.  All of our shipping materials are new, WITH THE EXCEPTION of large-quantity purchases, when we need to use larger boxes.  We take great care in packaging all of our records.  We use Delivery Confirmation when we ship through the US Post Office, and we strongly recommend shipping insurance, although this is optional.
