Description
For your consideration: Mississippi John Hurt on Okeh 8692 “Blue Harvest Blues/Spike Driver Blues”. I would call it a VG. Plays very nice with light surface noise (inherent in old 78’s). Has a very slight warp to it from years of storage but lays flat and plays fine when using a spindle clamp. Labels are clean on both sides with no spindle wear. White spots on labels in photos are flash glare. No chips, scratches or gouges. Record still retains a very nice sheen too. Both sides marked as A-1 pressings. You won’t be disappointed! This one is nice. Comes in the original Okeh company sleeve too.
For those of you who have asked to sample the merchandise, I've created a high quality 1 minute mp3 of this record you can download here:

Record was played on an Empire 208 turntable using a Pickering/Stanton 380 cartridge with a brand new 3mil stylus.
