Hello and welcome. Beginning in the 1960s, I made it my goal to collect interesting records of all sizes and speeds. Among these are vintage "78s" of many genres. While they are definitely NOT of the computer world, they are the medium used for recorded music longer than any other ever was or will be, and they do represent an undying search for the unique and wonderful in the world of sound. I'm happy to be able to offer them to you now. Here is what you're bidding on:  
TITLE & ARTIST: "Blue Moon of Kentucky/Goodbye Old Pal" - by Bill Monroe and the Blue Grass Boys on the Columbia Record label (37888), in beautiful original monophonic sound. 
CONDITION: LABELS - Near Mint; RECORD - Near Mint(Columbia 78 rpm record is beautiful with only a tiny non-interfering chip on the edge; it plays clearly with very little of the typical 78 light background noise; Monroe's band is strong and his trademark intense bluegrass tenor voice is unmistakable; a terrific record - visually graded under special daylight balanced spotlight; aurally graded on my 78 turntable).  IMPORTANT NOTICE: The photos included are the actual item offered; please examine them carefully; thanks.
SPECIAL FEATURES: The record is in superb condition. If you love the world of vintage "Godfather of Bluegrass" instrumental/vocal records from more than seven decades ago, then you will appreciate this historic record. 
TRACKS: Blue Moon of Kentucky/Goodbye Old Pal.

THANKS! If you have further questions about condition or content, please don't hesitate to ask. You may bid with unworried confidence. Our sales history is your assurance of absolute integrity. Thank you and good luck. 
OUR GRADING SYSTEM: We grade visually, and we are happy to listen to any 78 and give you an aural grade as well. SS (Still Sealed as from the factory); NM (Near Mint - our highest grade; the record has only a very few light marks that do not affect play); VG++ (Very Good Plus Plus - a few more light marks than Near Mint; still a great record that plays near perfectly); VG+ (Very Good Plus - an enjoyable, played and loved, obviously used but still listenable record, usually with some light pops, but free of major audible distraction); VG (Very Good) and below - we usually do NOT sell these, but if we have some good reason to offer such a record, we will explain completely).
