This record appears to be in good playable condition but I have not played it. I played one that I’m keeping for myself and it played fine on an antique wind up with a steel needle but I didn’t want to play this one and cause any extra wear. I don’t see any cracks or significant scratches. As can be seen in the photo, someone has scratched a number on the record at the top of the label. It has the extra Zon-o-phone hole or indention in the back to fit the extra lug on the early Zon-o-phone phonographs.


Please see photos and ask if have questions. I will pack very carefully and ship using USPS Priority Mail.


I am also listing other very rare Zonophone records with collectible subject matter and will combine shipping to US. Sorry, but eBay’s Global Shipping Program will not let me combine international sales.


Thanks
