(I'm also useraccount1)        

        One of ebay's early users. Started here in 1996 using my email address for an ID when that was allowed. Changed to useraccount2 on July 8, 2003.        

        Partly responsible for what's wrong here because my wife and I were in the 2002 Voices 7 ebay focus group that was shown nationwide on PBS and can be seen on youtube -- P6B46gRJ96U

        Buyer & seller of rare recordings as Records For Recollectors since 1963        

        On eBay we sell old records of all types, open reel tapes, art, early radios, my life-long collection of Zenith Trans-Oceanic portables, rare (sometimes very rare) books, US and foreign coins and currency, autographs and photos, rare magazines and ephemera, etc.        

        Quality items at low volume
        We stand behind them 100%
        We pack to professional standards
        We answer email as soon as we see it        

        Two guidelines we use:
        We don't say it's antique unless we believe it is over 99 years old. The only exceptions are motor vehicles, boats, radios, and phonographs which are ruled by a different convention.        

        In a collectibles industry filled with frauds and fools we are never the first and seldom the second. Coins, currency, autographs, photos, and all other collectibles we ever sold are backed with a 100% guarantee of authenticity. That includes the item(s) in this auction.        

We use to sell books at half.com under the alias "Sobriquet" until
        eBay ruined half.com by stealing from the sellers. (Shame on eBay.)
