COUNT BASIE ~ ONE O'CLOCK JUMP / JOHN'S IDEA ~ DECCA 1363 (BROADCASTING PROHIBITED) 10" 78 JAZZ

RECORD: E



78 RECORDS ARE BUBBLE WRAPPED AND PACKAGED IN A STURDY CARDBOARD MAILER AND THEN THAT BOX IS PACKAGED IN AN OVERSIZE BOX WITH PACKAGING MATERIAL IN ORDER TO ENSURE A SAFE DELIVERY

VJM GRADING SCALE:

N (78)  As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78's that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed)
N- (78)  Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
E+ (78)  Plays like new, with very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
E (78)  Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
E- (78) Still shiny but without the luster of a new record, few light scratches. 
V+ (78) Average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Surface noise present not overwhelming.
V (78)  Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not overly intrusive. 
V- (78) Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy graying in loud passages.  Surface noise and scratches more noticeable
G+ (78) Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.
G (78) Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise. 
G- (78) Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive.
F (78) Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.
P (78) Unplayable.
