Description
Henry’s String Band Victor 40225 Blue Bird Waltz / Choctaw Waltz
Condition :V - grading ( see below ) . This band made only three records. Both sides are fiddle , guitar and banjo. Plays with no issues and no skips.
Most of the 78's that I am listing will fall between a grading of G+ to V.
I'm sorry that I cannot offer returns due to the low starting prices so please have some fun bidding on these interesting and historical treasures from our musical past .
These precious discs will be skillfully packaged for safe transport .
Record Grading System
N. As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).
N-. Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
E+. Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
E. Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
E-. Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.
V+. V+ is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced.
V. Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.
V-. Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches are below music level.
G+. Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
G. Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.
G-. Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive.
F. Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.
P. Unplayable.
