All records are from my father’s collection (Jay Monroe Sr.) I thank all my loyal customers. I will be keeping the listings short and sweet or else I’ll never list them all. This is a cut and paste intro. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I will be listing as many records in all price ranges all through the holidays. Thanks for looking and be sure to check out my other listings. Happy Bidding. All Records are ORIGINAL PRESSINGS unless otherwise stated. I will be grading on the conservative side, as usual. All records are sent in record specific boxes with cardboard and bubble wrap squares. I have sent 100’s of the most fragile 45’s, 78’s and LP’s all over the world. All records are now play tested on an LP AT-120x BT USB through Klipsch speakers. Thanks again.

-Monroe Rare Records

This 1951 78 rpm record on ROBIN (BOB ROBERSON LABEL) is the first released record! In credible condition for a record this age. Plays very well! That said a record like this and most others I sell are meant to be played on high quality equipment. The come back of vinyl and shellac records hinges on the technology available now. A clean 78 on a proper turn table with 78 appropriate stylus sounds incredible. On lesser quality equipment not only can one damage the grooves but the sound is not the same. As I stated above, these records are from my father’s personal collection. A collection he worked on gathering most of his life. They are special to me and I want them to find homes they will be appreciated. I’m not trying to make a quick buck, I would have sold the whole lot (50k+ rare records) at wholesale other wise. If you’re looking to flip records that were thrown in a bin and put in an attic you’re probably in the wrong place. I take my father’s collection seriously, as he did. Thanks for looking and I will keep posting them all through the holidays. “Buy It Now” customers receive free shipping within the US and 50% return on International. (It will take a bit to refund everyone as I’m a one man show and records are selling fast.
