This is a nice copy of MOBILE MINSTRELS/PICKIN' COTTON by VICTOR MINSTREL COMPANY/COLLINS AND HARLAN on Victor 17293. I usually play test all 78s on my Stanton STR8-80 professional turntable before selling them. There is of course some surface noise on all 78s and the older the record the more that is true. Also most 78s have some slight scratches and scuffs on them. Some labels may have had an owner's name or sticker on them. Look at the photos. Shipping is $6.50 via media mail and the item will be carefully packed in cardboard and "floating" in a larger box to ensure safe delivery. Please see my other auctions for more great 78s, 45s, and albums. You must understand, it is not easy to safely ship shellac 78rpm records. You must insulate them as much as possible from getting crunched as you would not want to put two or more surfaces together without something between them to keep them from getting scratched or broken during transit. I use professional cardboard between individual discs and then make a sandwich topped off with bubble wrap, then float it in a larger cardboard container with crumpled newpaper to prevent it from moving within the box. Good hunting!
