Description
THE DAVE CLARK FIVE - CAN'T YOU SEE THAT SHE'S MINE / BECAUSE
THIS 78 rpm IS IN EX- / EX CONDITION ON THE COLUMBIA LABEL ISSUED 1964 IN INDIA.
THIS IS A VERY RARE 78 - RARER THAN BEATLES 78s. IN SEVERAL YEARS OF VISITING INDIA AND COLLECTING 78s, THIS IS THE FIRST I HAVE EVER FOUND BY THIS GROUP.
IT IS ONE OF SEVERAL 78s I AM LISTING, SOME ISSUED IN INDIA IN THE 1960s, LONG AFTER 78s WERE DISCONTINUED IN THE US AND EUROPE, OVERTAKEN BY 45s.
INCLUDED ARE INDIAN 78s by THE BEATLES, DAVE CLARK FIVE, RICKY NELSON, BOBBY DARIN, BILL BLACK, BOBBY CHARLES and CLIFF RICHARD.
THESE INDIAN 78 RPM RECORDS ARE VERY RARE, ESPECIALLY IN SUCH GOOD CONDITION. MOST LABELS CARRY THE WORDS 'MADE IN INDIA' OR SIMILAR, AND THE DATE OF ISSUE.
AND THEY'RE THE REAL GENUINE ORIGINAL - MADE OF SHELLAC, NOT VINYL !
PLEASE ALSO LOOK AT THE OTHER 78s LISTED - MOST OF THEM FROM THE U.S.
ROCKABILLY, ROCK'N'ROLL, BLUES, RnB AND COUNTRY including some on the LEGENDARY SUN LABEL, TOP RANK, CHART, PARROT, ESSEX, LONDON AMERICAN, MELODISC ETC...
78s by EDDIE COCHRAN, JOHNNY CASH, WARNER MACK, BUDDY HOLLY/CRICKETS, FIVE THRILLS, JOHNNY HORTON, THE CHAMPIONS, THE BLUE-TONES, HUEY PIANO SMITH , JOE TURNER, LLOYD PRICE, JOHN GRAY, ACE DINNING SAX, , SMILEY LEWIS ETC
AND PLENTY OF ELVIS PRESLEY 78s ON HMV AND RCA (at the end of the listing)
PACKING: I pack really well. I 'sandwich' the record/s between two thick pieces of cardboard, surround it with packing - scrunched up newspaper and/or bubble-wrap/polystyrene chips - and put it/them in a stout cardboard box. I have been sending records all over the world to regular collectors and dealers for many years. I have never had a breakage.
POSTAGE: I am happy to combine records to cut down the cost of postage. (I can safely mail up to six or even seven 78s for the 'cheaper' small packet postage rate to Europe and the US. Anything above the 2 kilos rate costs about twice as much)
UK STANDARD POSTAGE IS £4 FOR THE FIRST 78, THEN £1 FOR EACH EXTRA
CONTINENTAL EUROPE £ 6 FOR FIRST + £1 EACH EXTRA U.S. £ 12 + £2 EXTRAS
CONDITION / GRADING : M = Mint, New. + and - marks give clearer gradings.
Ex = Excellent - played but few marks & sound great.
VG = Very good, played many times, with scuff/wear & little surface noise
Where there are two conditions given, for example, Ex/VG, it means that the first side is in Excellent condition and the second VG.
Please note that I grade by sound. 78s can look quite beat up but still play Ex-
Labels are clean unless stated otherwise or as in photos.
WINNERS : Please send no payment until you hear from me with the total cost.
Cheques/postal orders preferred from UK buyers but Pay-pal OK for Europe and US.
I aim to have three ebay listings a year, but occasionally issue others too. So, if you would like to know of my future listings contact rocking78s@btopenworld.com
