LABEL & NUMBER: Paramount 12796

GRADE & DESCRIPTION (RECORD): G

(I grade conservatively using the VJM scale)

NOTES: True to the B-side title, this one is (not quite) "all worn out," but the wear is pretty even & there's still plenty of music left in these grooves!  Recorded in Richmond, Indiana at the Gennett studio on June 27, 1929.

Check my other listings, for sure!  I've got 11 top prewar country blues & jug band records listed this week - buy them all & you'd have an enviable top-shelf starter collection.

PAYMENT REQUIRED WITHIN 48 HOURS OF AUCTION CLOSE (unless you have contacted me to make other arrangements).  If you cannot pay or have no intention to pay for your winnings, please do not bid.  It seems like such a simple concept, but here lately...

I am an experienced 78 record packer & shipper!  Records will be sandwiched between cardboard and floated in an a 12" x 12" (or larger) oversized box stuffed with filler material.  Haven't had a single record break, 100% positive record shipping both domestically and overseas.  Check my feedback, this is the real deal.

SHIPPING PRICES for 78 RPM RECORDS: 

USA: $7 for 1st 78 and .50 cents each additional.  (Note that this BARELY covers postage, corrugate, peanuts, etc., and I'm actually taking a loss when you calculate that eBay charges sales tax on shipping AND THEN takes 10% of the combined shipping & sales tax as well, to say nothing of the bite that PayPal then takes of the total...)

WAIT FOR INVOICE after multiple wins for combined shipping discount! 

INTERNATIONAL: $40 for 1st Record and $5 each additional.  (Price went up Sep 2020, sorry guys, the old rate didn't even cover the postage anymore...)  WAIT FOR INVOICE!

CANADA: $15 for 1st Record and $3 each additional.  WAIT FOR INVOICE!
