Description
For Your Consideration - Lot of 52 Vintage 78 RPM Record Albums in sleeved binders. Includes RCA Victor, RCA Victor Red Seal, Decca, Decca Personality Series, Majestic, Mercury (as well as Mercury Popular Series and Celebrity Series), Columbia, London, Capitol, Capitol Americana, Bluebird, Musicraft, and Signature Record Labels. All records are in sleeves inside the binders; most are cataloged on the inside front cover of each binder. The Artists are all cataloged under their respective labels below, and include too many to name here as it would be repetitive, but for example; Bing Crosby, Thelma Carpenter, Guy Lombardo, The Ink Spots, Spike Jones, Frankie Laine, Frank Sinatra, Doris Day, Eddy Howard, Fats Waller, Johnny Mercer, and more. The records appear to be in VG or better condition, with no visible scratches or obvious wear: I was able to test a few of them w/turntable and they sound great. They were obviously meticulously kept over the years. The Binders are in various conditions - the red binder with the album and notes on the cover and the brown binder w/the same cover art are the two best of the lot. They are in excellent condition, with catalogs on the inside covers and only slight wear on the binding. The sleeves are also in excellent condition, with no wear at all. The two green binders are in decent shape, with the only wear being a torn binding on one of them and some binding wear on the other, but the sleeves inside are excellent, and again, there is a catalog on the inside front cover of each. The brown binder with no cover art is in poor condition, with the binding quite unstable and both front and back cover not very firmly intact. The sleeves inside are excellent though, and this one simply states "Fats Waller" on the inside front cover. The Eddy Howard Columbia Collection is in good condition with only minor wear at the edges. The cover art is still nice and the binding is firmly intact. The sleeves are excellent. Please feel free to ask any questions. I bought these at an estate sale but have some knowledge of their provenance and can supply info or pictures of any individual record, if needed. I took pictures of each binder to show any wear, and of the sleeves and records to show their wonderful condition; please see the pictures to verify my detailed description. All proceeds go to my nonprofit cat rescue, so thank you in advance for your interest. I am pricing them to sell. Catalog follows:

Total Records -- 50 (53 if you count the Eddy Howard Collection as 4 Separate Records, which I did not) I will ship these in separate boxes if that helps cut shipping costs, and I always pass along any savings to the buyer. Because the calculated shipping costs were even higher than what I have listed, I'm not sure what the savings will be, but I do my best to help my buyers avoid excessive costs whenever possible.
