Don't Leave Me To Cry

I Love You (Baby)

All of the records that I am currently selling are from an amazing collection that would appear to have originated at WGRY in Gary, IN.  A lot of these records are stamped "Property of WGRY".  A few of the sleeves had Lucky Cordell's name written on them or notes to Lucky from various promoters.  A lot of the records had Howard Bedno stickers, some All-State Distributors, some Bill Sheppard.  There were a lot of white label promos and just a lot of really amazing Chicago doo-wop, blues, and R&B records from the late 50s in this lot. 

These records were all stored in sleeves in one large box in a damp basement for a long time.  A lot of the records surprisingly are very clean and glossy, but some of them suffer from a phenomenon that I will call “brown paper sleeve stains” (BPSS) or “ghostly fingerlike streaks”.  I have had a hard time grading the ones that suffer from this phenomenon, as most often they are very glossy, have not been played much, don’t have any scratches or scuffs, but yet have these stains in the wax.  These stains can visually be pretty ugly, but don’t necessarily cause that much of a sonic degradation.  Sometimes they do and sometimes they don’t.  Any record that exhibits this phenomenon will be labeled as having  "brown paper sleeve stains" or "BPSS" in the condition description.  It's the best description I could come up with, since I don't really know what causes this phenomenon.  And it’s also important to say that not all of the records being auctioned have this going on, just the ones labeled “BPSS”.  And to be extra careful in grading this entire lot, I have play graded each of them in headphones.  So, every record that I am selling has been play graded and I have included the highest resolution .mp3s possible (320 kbps) so that what you hear and what I grade is what you are going to get.   

Shipping is $4 in the US and $7 overseas. Items over $200 must be shipped Registered which adds an extra $10.
