Victor 10.5” 78 RPM One Sided in-Plant Test Record (Ted Weems) “You Gave Ev’ry Thing” VG+ Visible Condition, scratches but play is very nice with some noise. LAST THREE I HAVE. Victor 10.5” 78 RPM very thick One Sided (in plant engineered not for sale) Test/Sample Record “(You Gave Ev’ry Thing”. This was one of the engineered samples pressed prior to release. The labelled area around spindle hole is hand written “BVE 67511 Feb. 19, 1931 182 127-207 “You Gave Ev’ry Thing Ted Weems Orch “ +4/0 5-2”. Also something written in pencil and what looks like a signature – I can’t make it out. I bought these in an estate sale lot about 30 years ago and put them away for safekeeping (They were definitely safe as it took 30 years to find them in all my collection). According to his family the deceased worked as a sound engineer for Victor Talking Machine Co and later RCA Victor from the 1920’s until he retired and these are samples he kept that were “tweaked” by Victor sound engineers to get the best play. The sound is quite good despite the scratches. Released by Victor Feb. 16, 1931 as Victor Scroll 22646.

Discography of American Historical Recordings, s.v. "Victor matrix BVE-67511. You gave me everything but love / Art Jarrett ; Ted Weems Orchestra,"

E++, Visibly nearly new with no visible signs of wear or damage.

,E+ Looks and plays like new with only few signs of handling and play.

E Still very shiny, near new looking, with slight visible signs of wear and a few nearly inaudible scuffs and scratches

E- Still shiny but without the luster of a new record, few scuffs that have little or no effect on play, some light scratches.

E- - Mostly shiny but with even less of the luster of an E- record, more scuffs than E-that have little or no effect on play, light scratches with some light noise.

VG+,  Slightly above average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced.

VG, An average condition 78 - moderate wear throughout, but still very playable and enjoyable. Surface somewhat dull with noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.

VG-, Quite playable still, but with some distortion and may have some graying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level.

VG- - Quite playable still, but with distortion and most have some graying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches noticeable and may be loud at times.

G+ Quite worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise. Grey may be throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled.

G Not so good. Wear and scratch damage extensive. Listening can become uncomfortable as music and surface noise probably blending. Lowest level music can be understood.

G-, Music barely audible over surface noise & listening is uncomfortable. Record is borderline unplayable.

P Used only for high dollar space fillers like Black Patti, Okeh blues, etc. Music covered by surface noise, scratches, and needle digs, label may be trashed, & listening is almost if not definitely impossible. Record is basically unplayable. What you keep because you can?t bear to toss ? while you look for that E+ copy of Robert Johnson on Vocalion at the local flea markets for $1 (Good Luck!)
