Description
Rare pre-war jazz 78, Paramount #12249, circa 1924. Vocal by Trixie Smith, credited on labels as Fletcher Henderson's Orchestra but I read that this is actually the Original Memphis 5. "Everybody Loves My Baby" on side A, and "How Come You Do Me Like You Do" on side B.
For a shellac record that is nearly 100 years old, this is remarkably well preserved. There are no chips or cracks There are numerous light superficial marks/scratches to the surface and some hazy patches, a minor dullness to the shellac but still quite glossy. Labels are clean with some spindle marks and an original 1920's store sticker on one side which is unique. I'm not familiar with the grading system for 78's but I took many photos for you to see the condition for yourself and I described the condition to the best of my ability.
This will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail instead of Media Mail as it is much safer. Please note that I do have experience packing 78's and have successfully shipped many of them over the years. Your 78 will be packed with the utmost care to ensure it's safe delivery.
Will ship within one business day of purchase.
I do combine shipping on multiple purchases to help you save on the shipping costs. If you order more than one item please wait for an invoice before paying.
