Description

On offer here is a 78 RPM shellac record by:

Cliff Richard and The Drifters

Titles: High Class Baby and My Feet Hit The Ground

Label and Catalogue Number: Columbia DB 4203

Year: 1958

Two great early Rock 'n' Roll tracks here (and only Cliff's 2nd record!). The surface of this shellac disc is in great condition; there is one small mark on the B-side that does not affect the playing at all and does not sound. Otherwise it is in superb order, with no scuffs, scratches or 'squiggles'. The label has a couple of marks where the record has been slid over the spindle, but looks a bit better than the pictures 'in the flesh'.

I am selling the record (and the other 78's) on behalf of my neighbour who has had it from new. I have even seen the record player it was played on, and it was an electric one, not a wind-up, so the record has not ever been played with a heavy needle (and it shows!). Frankly, if I still collected 78's I would have paid her good money for this.

78's are sent in 12 inch sturdy mailing boxes and are protected by layers of cardboard, and then this is placed inside a larger box with newspaper scrunched up in it to ensure they reach you safely. This system has been 100% successful - the last time I sent some 78's out using this packaging system everything arrived safely (including France and Germany) and I got excellent feedback for the packaging!

POSTAGE: 4 Pounds for the UK. 6 Pounds for Europe. USA and other world areas is 8 Pounds. I certainly won't be making any money on postage costs here - the 12" mailing boxes and card protectors cost me a lot, although the outer box I get for free). Postage is first class economy UK (takes a few days but it is a lot cheaper and it is safe - I can post first class to UK but it will cost a bit extra) and airmail elsewhere (4 days for Europe, about a week for other destinations). Multiple winners will pay less postage for any additional 78's won on my auctions in the same week. 78's are sent in 12 inch sturdy mailing boxes and are protected by layers of cardboard, and then this is placed inside a larger box with newspaper scrunched up in it to ensure they reach you safely.

PAYMENT: From UK only: Cheque/Postal Order. All countries including UK : moneybookers.com, Paypal, Nochex, Bidpay. Cash payments strictly at own risk - I have had problems with non-delivered cash payments and must recommend that if you do send cash you have proof of postage. If you do send cash, I accept payment in UK Pounds, US Dollars or Euros.

Thanks for looking at this auction.
