Jeanine Weill, 1897 - c.1990, was a French pianist, studied with Marguerite Long and Alfred Cortot, played as soloist and with the principal orchestras in Paris, Lisbon, Glasgow.

12" Decca T 10004: Debussy, Estampes: La soirée dans Grenade, matrix SA40-3 / La plus que lente, matrix FA151-3. Condition: Side 1 = 3, and crack 3 cm causes 13 tics, slight scratches / Side 2 = 2-3, and crack 3 cm causes 7 tics. Otherwise fine sound and a great rarity. It's the only record in my collection ! ( If you have a good sound restore program, like Sound Forge, you can easely repair the crack ! )

About me :
Since 1966 I collected 78 rpm records, principally classical pianists. I was looking in many, many second-hand and charitiy-chops, collectors fair, fleamarkets and so on in France, Germany, Austria , Italy and of course in Switzerland. I had always a good contact with others collectors in Great Britain and in the States. Since 1970 I was for a long time member of the City of London Phonograph and Gramophone Society, from 1985 member of the Schellack-Schallplatten-Sammler-Verein, Vienna and from 1990 until today member of the International Association of Sound and Audiovisual Archives IASA, section DE/CH. I’m not a « really » record collector, more an admirer of the pianists and a music lover.
If you have any problem about 78 rpm records or a want list ( I never found any record of Grieg ( except the Historic HMV ), Ilona Eibenschütz, Alexander Michalowski and the legendary Pathé of Bernhard Stavenhagen ) please inform me.
