Read by Benjamin de Loache

Here is a true rarity among 78 rpm picture discs.  This is record one of a two record set issued in late 1932 and offered for sale at $2.00 per record.  Needless to say, very few copies were sold, and within a year or so the record had gone out of print.  This example is in very good condition.  There are a few minor surface rubs and marks, and a couple of tiny rim flakes that do not detract from the picture and are nowhere near the grooves.  A couple of tiny brown spots appear near the center on side 1, side 2 is very clean.  I'll grade it an 8 on a scale of 10.  When was the last time you saw a copy of this offered for sale?
