Description
Here on Columbia Masterworks MM-666 from 1947 is a 19-12" 78 rpm record set, the binder is in very good condition with a solid spine and nice clean graphics with bright color, the records visually appear to grade a V+/E- on the VJM scale and should play with no skips or distortion and very little surface noise. A nice set of records. Please look at the pictures and feel free to ask any questions, I wipe records with a microfiber cloth I do not chemically clean them. Cleaning is recommended on all 78's as I stated earlier other than wiping with a microfiber cloth I don't clean them I like to leave that to the discretion of the next owner. I pack and ship 78's between cardboard sheets-wrapped in bubble wrap then placed in a large box with packing materials so essentially the record floats, I combine shipping, with each additional 78 record being $1.00, I am always open to offers and thank you for looking. I use the Vintage Jazz Mart (VJM) scale for grading 78's both visually and aurally, and although I am not a professional grader I do know what I like and I try to grade under. If there is any issues with your record(s) please contact me and we will work out the problem. I recycle and with the cost of media mail being reasonable I believe more packing less breaking. I ship Internationally through Ebay Global Shipping strictly. Here is a list of record numbers with grade appearance:17910-VG+/E->17911-VG+>17912-E->17913-E->17914-VG+/E->17915-E->17916-VG+<17917-VG+/E->17918-VG++>17919-E-<17920-VG+/E-<17921-VG++>17922-VG+>17923-VG++>17924-VG++>17925-E->17926-VG+>17927-E->17928-VG+/E-. This set weighs in at just under 20 pounds, and will be packed extremely well. Overall this set appears to have been played very little.
