For your consideration is a rare vintage 10 inch 78 rpm by Irving Mills and His Hotsy Totsy Gang. This rare release was made in 1929 and features Bill "Bojangles" Robinson tap dancing. Robinson was a well known black performer who was featured in many popular films during the 1930s, and was of exceptional talent as am entertainment performer. Robinson claims this disc actually features Duke Ellington and his Orchestra. Which is entirely possible as Irving Mills was the manager of the Ellington group at the time and had a contract with Brunswick. These sides have also been issued on some Duke Ellington compilations over the years. Hear below!

All of our old shellac and vinyl 78 records are packed with utmost care and precaution so as to ensure they arrive to you in the same condition in which they were shipped out. I have extensive experience shipping 78s. For an in depth explanation of my shipping methods, see the bottom of this page. All items will be shipped within 3 days of purchase. All good faith offers thoroughly considered.

Further, for your purchasing consideration, a video link has been provided below to provide the option to listen to a short segment of one side of this disc. Please keep in mind that rather economical equipment was used and 78s only received a light cleaning. For the highest fidelity reproduction results, a correct sized, well maintained stylus should always be used and antique records should also always receive a deep cleaning with a stiff bristled brush and a non-alcohol based soap. I do not provide grading beyond what is required by eBay. If the photographs and sound sample prove insufficient, do not hesitate to reach out with a question, as well as any other type of inquiry related to an item.

[isdntekvideo] All 78 rpm records, vinyl or shellac, will be shipped sandwiched between either thick cardboard or some spare 78 rpm discs to provide substantial reinforcement for uneven pressure placed on a package during shipment. The record sandwich is then suspended in packing peanuts on all sides. Packing peanuts are the optimal durable memory material as they will insulate your item against any acute forces such as a fall or any type of blow and unlike bubble wrap will not pop and lose their shape if subjected to a strong force.
