Please read the record grading guide below and familiarize yourself with the grades used and be aware of the full description in all aspects.
I strive to grade fairly, and have never sold a record without listening to it first. Playtested? Of course!
Visual grading is not an option at all.
This 35 year old 78 I have graded as being in Very Good condition. Both sides play through with no jumping, skipping or any other audio horrors. There are noticeable minor hairline surface marks that any 78 of this vintage would accumulate over the passage of time...
There is the expected low-level and generally non-intrusive surface noise, typically common to any used shellac disc of this vintage, and which shouldn't spoil your authentic listening experience!
A perfectly acceptable shellac-to-mp3 transfer, with a suitable turntable. Keep it real but in a digital way!
The labels are in good condition, light surface wear, but with no major defects, see close-up pictures uploaded. 1940's Decca styling well in evidence...

Side One - Over The Rainbow

GRADING GUIDE FOR 78rpm DISCS
NM Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
EX+ Plays like new, with few signs of handling. Minor scuffs visible.
EX Very shiny, nearly new looking. No visible signs of wear, inaudible scuffs and scratches.
VG++ Still shiny, but without the lustre of a new record. A few light scratches. Light wear. No skipping or sticking passages.
VG+ Above average, undeniably vintage condition 78 in which scuffs and general use have dulled the finish of the disc. Wear is moderate, but playback is not overly affected, and is free from distortion. Light surface noise, commensurate with age. No skipping or sticking passages.
VG Moderate, even wear throughout, still very playable. Surface noise and scratches, audible but not intrusive.
Good++ Quite playable still, distortion on playback due to surface noise. Music remains loud, in most passages, with scratches and surface noise evident but below music level.
Good+ Serviceable and acceptable playback. Music may sound muffled in some sections. Noticeably heavier scratches and surface marks.
Good Quite obviously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.
Good- Music still prominent, with wear and scratches extensive.
Fair Most of music remains audible over continual surface noise, although the vintage 78 experience is an uncomfortable affair. Collection filler material.
Poor Unplayable, and most definitely of interest only to the most dedicated...
Please note :-
A word about Shipping and Delivery times.
I offer Free Shipping on nearly all of my Buy-It-Now items, and on Auction items a fairly priced Shipping charge (which includes USPS service and the cost of a dedicated mailer suited to the particular item).
Items are shipped within 3 day of the order being placed. Sometimes they are shipped the same day, sometimes on the third day.
CD's are shipped First Class, it's cheap and cheerful for them, no worries.
Records – all formats, 45's, vinyl LP's and 78's – plus books are all shipped by Media Mail, which is an Economy service and , in general, can take a few days longer.
However, if you want it delivered Priority or 1st Class, ask beforehand, it's not a problem and I can make the necessary adjustments.
Thank you for reading this.
