MANY OF THE 40 SIDES.
THE DISCOLORED AREAS ARE SMOOTH TO THE TOUCH .
ONE SUCH SPOT CAN BE SEEN IN THE PHOTO 3
(only thin light gray horizontal line; other lines are from photo)
** GROOVES BENEATH DISCOLORED AREA SEEN UNDER MAGNIFYING
GLASS ARE STRONG AND STURDY AND APPEAR UNDAMAGED
I PLAYED ONE RECORD WITH MOST NOTICEABLE STAINS ON A VINTAGE 78 EXPERT PHONOGRAPH MADE BY E.P.GINN.
ALMOST NO SURFACE NOISE WAS HEARD AND SOUND WAS REMARKABLY CLEAN EVEN AS IT PLAYED OVER DISCOLORED AREA.
THE SOUND OF THE ORGAN WAS CLEAR AND STRONG THROUGHOUT
PLEASE NOTE: BY VISUAL INSPECTION I CAN ONLY ASSUME THE OTHER 19
RECORDS WILL PLAY AS WELL...
I CANNOT GRADE THESE RECORDS BUT WILL SAY
THEY ARE IN EXCEEDINGLY GOOD SHAPE FOR THEIR AGE.
EACH RECORD HAS A LABEL AS SEEN IN THE PHOTO WITH TITLE AND NUMBER.
EACH RECORD COMES IN A SOLID PLAIN WHITE HEAVY CARDBOARD HOLDER
