Description





























One sided 10" 78rpm  ACETATE / DUBPLATE SHEET MUSIC & THE LETTER TO PITCH THE SONG + THE ACCEPTANCE LETTER also the DOT records return address off the envelope of the acceptance letter to pitch LOUIS PRIMA & KEELY SMITH's ABSENT MINDED LOVER which was accepted & performed by Louis & Keely on their RETURN of the WILDEST Lp & is the B side of DOT 45-16249
PLEASE NOTE: THE ACETATE HAS VERY TALENTED BUT UNKNOWN (NOT ON THE DISK) ARTISTS PERFORMING, NOT LOUIS PRIMA & KEELY SMITH (Hear it below)
ACETATE plays VG+ but has some shellack coming off in the dead wax in 2 spots . I decide to superglue down one to keep it from growing (see the picture of the cloudy area) it wasn't that big but there was the beginning of a split on either side & the 2nd you can see I left untouched. Neither has any affect on the music (as you can hear on my recording below) & there is plenty of space on the edge before it starts as the music doesn't kick in for 2 or 3 seconds after the dead wax ends. IN A GENERIC SLEEVE 
ALSO IN THE PICTURES YOU CAN SEE  THE SHEET MUSIC (which is bleached out on the top left) The Pitch Letter & The Acceptance Letter The Return address off the envelope of the acceptance letter
BELOW IN BLUE IS THE LINK TO HEAR MY YOUTUBE UPLOAD OF THIS DISC acetate sent to Louis Prima & Keely Smith to pitch their song Absent Minded Lover
OF COURSE I COMBINE ITEMS FOR CHEAPER SHIPPING

VJM 78 GRADNG SCALE

N-:Nearly New, 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 sleeves.

E : Excellent. 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 luster of a new record, few light scratches.

V+ :is 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 : Very Good 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 : Good Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.

G- ; F ; and P The VJM system has these designations for records in extremely poor condition.
