Original Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig 78 rpm record of "'Babe' and 'Lou' (The Home Run Twins), parts 1 and 2." This is on the Perfect label #12382 and it is also pressed on brown wax!! The record is in beautifully clean VG+ condition with full gloss. No chips or cracks. Labels show only a couple very minor 'spindle trails', but no nicks or gouges and no writing or stickers on either. This rare record was pressed around 1927 and features two full sides of Ruth and Gehrig dialoguing!! This is one of the few items of its kind that features both Yankees' greats together at the height of their careers. It would be very difficult to find a much nicer example of this scarce baseball collectible!! Gradings are visual only; I do not have the appropriate means to play these 78 records.

Payment by PAYPAL ONLY....I do not accept any other form of payment. Unless the buyer makes a different arrangement with me (i.e. contacts me directly), payment is expected within three days (72 hours) from the closing date of the item. After three days, an unpaid item case will automatically be opened and the buyer then has four additional days to complete payment (per Ebay's terms). I am always happy to offer combined shipping for ALL BUYERS for up to one week (seven days) from the closing date of the initial purchase.  This is a courtesy that I offer to all buyers regardless of location.  Please do not expect me to hold items for 2 or 3 weeks (or even more) while additional bids are placed. Please try to be considerate of this request when bidding on multiple items on different dates. Payment is always expected WITHIN ONE WEEK FROM THE CLOSING DATE OF THE BUYER'S INITIAL PURCHASE.  Combined shipping rates are listed below.

These fragile 78 are packaged with utmost care in oversized, sturdy boxes and sent by Priority Mail.  Please use the shipping calculator to determine your shipping price. I can ship up to three 78 records for the exact same price quoted by the shipping calculator for a single one, regardless of location. If you are interested in more than three, please email me directly for a shipping quote, as it will be just slightly higher.  I can ship up to five 78 records in the boxes that I use.  Above five, a new mailer will need to be started at the base shipping price.

I personally write all of my own descriptions, take all of my own photos, and package all items for mailing myself.  I do not use text, photos or information from “other” sources and would certainly never do so without referencing them. Items pictured in any of my listings are always the actual items that buyers will receive from me. 

Buyer satisfaction and returns:  I offer what I believe is a very reasonable return policy for all individual items (and smaller lots) that I sell. The item must be returned to me exactly as it was packaged and mailed to the buyer.  I will refund the original sale price and shipping fee only; return shipping is the buyer’s responsibility.  I do not give ‘partial’ refunds either (i.e. the buyer keeps the item for a lesser price).  This policy applies to U.S. and non-U.S. buyers alike and regardless of the final sale price of the item.  That being said, please ask any and all questions you may have before bidding.
