For sound quality, please listen to sound clips. For visual quality, please see photos. Quote on G grade found on the web is fairly accurate: "Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise."
Does not have the original sleeve; will be in a replacement Kraft paper sleeve.
I've owned 78s for years and respect their fragility. To ship, I will place the record in a replacement Kraft paper sleeve, sandwich it between cardboard layers, and place in a larger box with shock absorbent material.
If you prefer a different shipping method, or want insurance, please contact me immediately after a winning bid to invoice you with updated shipping charges.
The sound clips below include the first and last portions of each side, with 2 seconds of silence between each segment. Around 1 minute sampled from each song. No noise or click suppression used.
