BLACK GOSPEL 78 RPM
RARE GOSPEL 78 BY THE DIXIEAIRES, UNDER THE NAME ANGEL VOICES. THIS IS NOT THE ANGEL VOICES ON METEOR (A FEMALE DUET). THIS GROUP EVENTUALLY BECAME THE DU DROPPERS. GREAT STUFF & RARE.

CONDITION:  NEW MINUS (HAS A SAUCER WARP, THAT DOES NOT AFFECT PLAY)


STANDARD 78 RPM GRADING:

N-   NEW MINUS - Highest grade used. Appears unplayed or barely played. Full luster. May have slight signs of handling, or sleeve marks.

E+   EXCELLENT PLUS - Full luster remains. Very few careful plays. Slightest indications of use, handling or storage marks.

E    EXCELLENT - Almost full luster. Mild signs of play or storage marks. No serious wear, scratches or scuffs.
E-   EXCELLENT MINUS - Some luster remains, but record has some apparent wear, scuffs and / or light   scratches. Still a pretty nice 78, better than average, acceptable to most collectors.
V+  VERY GOOD PLUS - Record has considerable wear, scuffs and / or scratches. Still plays pretty well but is clearly a used record. An AVERAGE USED 78 is in the V to V+ range.
V   VERY GOOD - Mostly or fully gray from use. Obvious surface noise but probably still plays pretty well. Scuffing and / or scratches more prominent.
V-  VERY GOOD MINUS - Further deterioration. Fully gray with deeper wear and heavy surface noise.
G   GOOD - Good enough to play through. Very rough, deeply gray, surface noise about equal to music.
F   FAIR - Really beat 78 that may skip. Surface noise exceeds music.

SPLIT GRADE (like E/E-) means the record has a different grade on each side.
BETWEEN GRADE (like EE-) means the record's condition is between the two grades.


SHIPPING DETAILS:  78s require special attention. Deep, oversized boxes are used. The 78s are sandwiched between at least four cardboard filler pads, and packed with Styrofoam peanuts and/or bubble wrap for safe arrival. I do not use LP mailers or 10 inch pizza box mailers. For 78's, I only use NEW BOXES from U-Line. My cost is about $5.00 for a box, filler pads, packing peanuts, tape and stickers. More if an inner box is needed.
