Description
LATE PARAMOUNT #13030
GRAFTON WISCONSIN 1930 or 31
DONT PUT THAT THING ON /
SITTING ON TOP OF THE WORLD
(Side B Sittin on Top of the World is attributed to Robinson and Lewis on the label but it appears that it could actually be Harum Scarums, involving Broonzy and Tom Dorsey on some level.)
Record has some gloss left, has some wear including a couple of rough spots on World side that play through but will tic as they pass (pictured).
I'd call it G+ light wear and noisy.
Still, very late Paramount Race series release .. #13030's is getting well into the Skip James - less than 5 or 10 copies left - area of the discography.

I like the VJM grading system for 78 RPM records:
- 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+. 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 well 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
