This listing is for five record cards, one each with the following names ~ Joey, Jeri, Tommy, Tony and Vickie

Estate find, NOS Three Stooges Happy Birthday record card w Larry, Moe & Curley Joe.  Great gift for Three Stooges collector and/or the record collector in your life! These came from a local Ben Franklin. No date on these, but I have frequently seen these dated to 1961. I have seen a store display for these records and it stated that there was "12 minutes of sparkling story & song on top quality 33 1/3 R.P.M. record". The original suggested retail was $1 each. The person's name is listed on the record and mentioned in the song. You can find audio examples of these records on YouTube.

***Please denote your name choice in the notes section of your purchase!*** 

The records are NOS, but exhibit wear from their time in the Ben Franklin & afterwards when people were going through the estate. The majority of the sleeves have a handwritten price of 98 (cents) presumably from when they were Ben Franklin inventory. These were written in ballpoint pen, I have shown a closeup of an example of this.  Some sleeves have some tears or other flaws & records may have been handled at one point, I have noticed fingerprints, dust & light scratches on some that I have examined. I don't know if the store originally had a record player to listen to these. We have no record player to test these and they are being sold as is!

We will ship these in a 2 mil polypropylene sleeve sandwiched between cardboard to protect record. Domestic shipping choice of first class or priority mail.

I have included photos showing examples and tried to describe and represent condition, but please message with any questions before bidding!
