$

27

Earl Johnson and his Dixie Entertainers (Clodhoppers). Side A, Ain't Nobody's Business.  Visual EX-, playback EX. Has light noise but sounds great. Side B, Three Night's Experience. Visual EX-, playback EX, same as Side A. Great songs on this disc. It always makes me smile listening to his music. I am sure that he was a real character in his day. Super nice 78, hard to find in this condition.

This is my grading system for 78's  to match up with EBay's grading scale.  I may use +/- for a disc that falls between grades.  If you would like to contact me I will gladly play it for you. 

M= Almost impossible to find 78. New and unplayed in original sleeve.  They do exist.

NM=  A very rare 78.  Looks and plays like new.  No scratches, scuffs, or manufacturer defects.  Labels are perfect.

EX=  A highly collectible 78.  Very shiny, will have only a few light scratches or scuffs per and show no groove wear.  Labels are nearly perfect with only the slightest of defects.  Playback may have a few light ticks and pops.  Surface noise will be minimal.

VG+=  A collectible, above average condition 78.  Shiny, but will have dull areas, maybe some light exposure fade.  There will be more than a few light scratches or scuffs per side but no deep scratches. There may be light groove wear.   Labels will show wear but still look nice.  Playback will have ticks, pops, and surface noise but nothing uncomfortable.

VG=  An average condition 78.  Dull finish, moderate even wear throughout.  Will have numerous light scratches or scuffs per side, if there are any deep scratches I will note it on the description.  Labels will show wear but are readable.  Playback will have ticks, pops, and surface noise that is becoming uncomfortable but does not overpower music.

G=  Poor condition 78.  Seriously worn and scratched.  Labels may or may not be readable.  Playback is plagued by noise and is uncomfortable to listen too.  Mainly used as a filler for a hard to find disc.  

SHIPPING= I will ship anywhere in the world.  If you are outside the US, request an invoice for additional shipping charges.  I prefer to use Priority, but will gladly use First Class to help save you some money.  Please be aware that most countries do not allow insurance on First Class packages, I will not be held responsible for an item that I cannot insure.  If you are inside the US, I use media mail.  If you prefer Priority please let me know. 

PACKAGING= I use a 13 x 13 x 4" 200 lb. rated box.  I place the disc in a plastic sleeve outside of the original sleeve when applicable.  I sandwich the disc between cardboard.  I place shipping peanuts or newspaper under and on top of the cardboard sandwich to fill the space and absorb shock.
