Description

NOTE: I mistakenly looked at a previous sale on this at a high price thinking that one was an E- copy when it was E. That is why I held up the price on this listing. I have reduced the price accordingly. Thanks!

Terrific copy of this rare jazz classic. Okeh Electric 8645. Clarence Williams Novelty Four with Justin Ring, King Oliver and Eddie Lang. Super nice E- copy with no chips, cracks or warps. Great labels. One label did have a small piece of old masking tape which was successfully removed without harm. Looking straight at the label you can't tell it was there, but looking at it in glare you see a faint trace (see photos). Plays very quiet with no issues. Excellent sound. Comes with original Okeh sleeve. Please ask questions and/or voice concerns BEFORE bidding. Listing some other rare 78's over the next few days as well as some others - keep checking back. I will combine. This one ships carefully packed and insured through Media Mail unless Priority is requested. IGNORE THE 4.00 CHARGE - SHIPPING WILL BE 5.75 for media mail. DO NOT PAY UNTIL I SEND INVOICE. See below:

I have much experience with successfully shipping 78 records in a professional way: Record paced in good sleeve and sandwiched between 6 pcs. cardboard, wrapped in bubble wrap and placed in a new 12x12x6" box with peanuts. I get great feedback on my shipping technique. See my recent feedback on record sales. I ship Internationally by First Class Int. I have many happy customers in the UK, Europe, Australia, Japan as well as coast to coast. Buy with confidence. Grading key below. Thanks and God bless!

Grading Key:  E- = Typically the highest I will grade unless absolutely new. Shiny with little to                                 no marks or wear. Not quite excellent.                           

                       VG+ = Decent shine and light scuffs, minor light scratches and storage wear. Faint     graying beginning in grooves. Noise is minimal. An above average record.

                        VG = More obvious wear overall. Noise increased. Average 78 record.

                         VG- = Heavier wear overall. Significant noise. Below average.

                          Poor = self explanatory. Would never list one of these except for rarity.
