Three Victrola Records by Enrico Caruso

This is a collection of three one-sided Victor/Victrola records featuring performances by Enrico Caruso, dating from I think the 1920's or so.  They are all 12" in diameter and I assume they are all 78 RPM, though none of them say that (I think everything was 78 RPM at that time).

The condition of the records in generally very good.  I have no machine capable of playing them so all I can do is visually inspect them for signs of damage or scratches.  My notes on the condition of each is included in the list of records below.

The records are:

• Trovatore - Miserere, Caruso and Frances Alda (89030) - no scratches that I can see
• Largo (Handel) from Xerxes, Caruso (88617) - one very small scratch but otherwise looks OK
• The Lost Chord, Caruso (88378) - appears unscratched

Each record comes in a heavy paper sleeve that looks like it came out of an old record binder or album or some kind (not shown in photos).  The sleeves have some tears that have been repaired with clear tape.

Buyer pays media mail shipping for a four pound package in the U.S (these records are quite heavy).  Priority mail shipping is available at extra cost.  U.S. bidders only, please.
