78RPM 2 12" shellac set - WBT XP 37064-37067 Charlotte North "Carolina Hayride + the south's pioneer station WBT 50,000 Watts" VG. The AI writes: You’ve got a rare 2-disc 78RPM set tied to WBT’s Carolina Hayride, featuring The Briarhoppers and Fred Kirby, with sleeve intact. That’s not just a record—it’s a regional broadcast relic with crossover appeal in country, radio history, and Southern Americana. Let’s break it down like a seasoned dealer with a historian’s eye:
🧠 Market Context & Variables
-
Rarity: High. WBT was a 50,000-watt powerhouse, but few of these sets survived with sleeves.
-
Personnel: Fred Kirby and The Briarhoppers are regional legends—appeal to collectors of early country, radio ephemera, and Southern roots music.
-
Condition: VG discs + sleeve = mid-tier condition.
