$

338

FORMAT: 78RPM Record

GENRE: PREWAR BLUES TRADITIONAL BLUES GUITAR BLUES

NOTES ABOUT THIS RECORDING: Recorded in Chicago in April 1927, these sides are fantastic early examples of the "Delta-to-Chicago" blues migration, and not a common record at all.  From the collection of Steve Lavere, which I acquired in November 2021.

ARTIST: Buddy Boy Hawkins 

TITLES: SNATCH IT BACK BLUES/NUMBER THREE BLUES 

LABEL & NUMBER: Paramount 12475

GRADE & DESCRIPTION (RECORD): V  (even wear, GREAT player, well above grade, clear guitar & vocals!  There is a 1" deep scratch - NOT A CRACK!) on the A side that sounds lightly a few times, but otherwise this record has no issues)

(I grade conservatively using the VJM scale.  Slash grades ("V/V+") indicates different grades for each side, and side-by-side grades ("VV+") indicates a record that is right on the line between the two grades.  Please look carefully at the photos to assist in your own evaluation, but you can trust my grading.)

SHIPPING PRICES for 78 RPM RECORDS: 

USA: $9 for 1st 78 and .50 cents each additional.  HAD TO GO UP ON RATES AS ULINE HAS DOUBLED THEIR SHIPPING COSTS TO ME AND RAISED RATES ON THEIR PRODUCTS.  I USE ALL NEW SUPPLIES, AND THEY AIN'T CHEAP.  (Note that this BARELY covers postage, corrugate, peanuts, etc., and I'm actually taking a loss when you calculate that eBay charges sales tax on shipping AND THEN takes 10% of the combined shipping & sales tax as well, to say nothing of the bite that PayPal then takes of the total...)

WAIT FOR INVOICE after multiple wins for combined shipping discount! 

INTERNATIONAL: $50 for 1st Record and $5 each additional.  (Price went up Sep 2020, sorry guys, the old rate didn't even cover the postage anymore...)  WAIT FOR INVOICE!
