MUSKETEERS aka SERENADERS ROXY 801
LOVE YOU TIL MY DYING DAY GOODBYE MY LOVE
This is the SERENADER’S FIRST RECORD issued as the MUSKETEERS. It was a LIMITED ISSUE from DETROIT’S ROXY THEATRE From 1952. This is a 78 ONLY ISSUE. In 1953 it was reissued on SWING-TIME, again only on 78.
POPSIKE shows a copy sold for $550. ROCKIN’ RECORDS shows a book value of $750 to $1,000. VERY RARE and DESIRABLE record.
Early BLUES sounding vocal group performance. Bluesy rocker b/w Deep Ballad. Strictly Fine.
CONDITION: E Strong E copy, pushing E+
Standard 78 Grading:
N- NEW MINUS - Highest grade used. Appears unplayed. Full luster. Slight signs of handling
E+ EXCELLENT PLUS - Full luster remains. Very few careful plays. Slightest indications of use or handling.
E EXCELLENT - Almost full luster. Mild signs of play, but no serious wear, scratches or scuffs.
E- EXCELLENT MINUS - Some luster remains, but record has some apparent wear, scuffs and / or scratches. Still a pretty nice 78, acceptable to most collectors.
V+ VERY GOOD PLUS - Record has considerable wear, scuff and / or scratches. Still plays pretty well but is clearly a used record. An AVERAGE USED 78 is in the V to V+ range.
V VERY GOOD - Mostly or fully gray from use. Obvious surface noise but probably still plays pretty well. Scuffing and / or scratches more prominent.
V- VERY GOOD MINUS - Further deterioration. Fully gray with deeper wear and heavy surface noise.
G GOOD - Very rough, deeply gray, surface noise about equal to music.
F FAIR - Really beat 78 that may skip. Surface noise exceeds music.
Shipping Details: 78s require special attention. Deep, oversized boxes are used. The 78s are sandwiched between at least four cardboard filler pads (slats) and packed with styrofoam peanuts and/or bubble wrap for safe arrival. I do not use LP mailers or 10 inch pizza box mailers.
Postage: USA. PRIORITY MAIL ONLY $15.00
Postage International: International First Class is $27.00. Canada is $20.00 I cannot declare lower values for customs.
Background: I have been a collector and occasional seller since 1967. You can buy with confidence because I am an experienced grader and packer.
Guaranty: Records are fully guaranteed. Return within 30 days for full refund if not satisfied. Buyer pays return postage. There has been very little loss, breakage or dissatisfaction over the years.
So save your pounds, marks, schillings, francs, euros, shekels, pesos, even gold and silver because many great Blues, R&B and DOO-WOP 45s and 78s, from the RALPH SHURLEY COLLECTION are forthcoming. Please mark me as a favorite.
