Description
THIS IS SIDNEY TORCH & HIS ORCHESTRA WITH 'THE DAM BUSTERS' MARCH' AND WALTZ 'SWEET SEVENTEEN'. RECORD IS PARLOPHONE 10" SHELLAC 78 No. R 4024 THERE IS AN EMBOSSED 'RT' ON THE LABEL; I BELIEVE THIS REPRESENTS A PURCHASE TAX CODE 'RT' THIS WOULD MEAN A PRESSING DATE OF 1955/1956
MATRIX Nos. ARE CE 15217-3A & CE 15218-3A
I HAVE PLAYED THIS 78 ALL THROUGH ON MY PROPER 78 PLAYER AND THE SOUND IS EXCELLENT. I DIDN'T DETECT ANY WEAR.
THE SHELLAC APPEARANCE IS ALSO VERY GOOD, MINIMAL MARKS & JUST ONE OR TWO VERY LIGHT NON-SOUNDING SCRATCHES.
THE SLEEVE IS PARLOPHONE, PROBABLY ORIGINAL, QUITE GOOD.
I WOULD GRADE THIS 78 EX+ / EX-.....THAT'S SHELLAC / SLEEVE FULLY PLAYED. THIS RECORD HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN CARED FOR.
