Here is a nice lot of 13 Polish records, there are 10 on the early Odeon label out of New York and a lot of 3 on the early Okeh label, the records visually appear to grade a V+ or better on the VJM scale and play with very little surface noise. Please look at the pictures and feel free to ask any questions, I wipe records with a microfiber cloth I do not chemically clean them. Record playback quality will be highly influenced by the type of turntable, cartridge and tracking force used. Cleaning is recommended on all 78's as I stated earlier other than wiping with a microfiber cloth I don't clean them I like to leave that to the discretion of the next owner. I pack and ship 78's between cardboard sheets-wrapped in bubble wrap then placed in a large box with packing materials so essentially the record floats, I combine shipping, with each additional 78 record being $1.00, I am always open to offers and thank you for looking. I use the Vintage Jazz Mart (VJM) scale for grading 78's both visually and aurally, all 78's are played prior to listing and prior to shipping when sold and although I am not a professional grader I do know what I like and I try to grade under. If there is any issues with your record(s) please contact me and we will work out the problem. I recycle and with the cost of media mail being reasonable I believe more packing less breaking. I ship Internationally through Ebay Global Shipping strictly.
