Rare Pre-wars Blues. Please check photos and video for exact grading. This has not been cleaned and played on a 50s Dansette with the standard 78rpm stylus, may sound better with the correct setup.
Madame "Ma" Rainey – Moonshine Blues / Southern Blues Label: Paramount – 12083 Format: Shellac, 10", 78 RPM, Brown Country: US Released: 2 Feb 1924 Genre: Blues Style: Vocal
Plays right through with typical surface noise. 
The 78s I am selling are not classed as mint condition, they have all been played and well loved, I test play them all and can guarantee they will play right though although have typical surface noise, I am playing them on a 1950's Dansette Major though, so probably not getting best sound out of them. 

78s are notoriously fragile, and have survived over 80 years, so I pack very carefully. Each 78 is covered in sandwiched between 2 cross laid 12" cardboard stiffeners, wrapped in bubbled wrap and sent in a 12 x 12 x 6" double skin box with more void packaging. The extra packaging means that I to have charge slightly higher postage prices for 78s, but rest assured that the main things is that your 78 reaches you fully intact.

Due to the fragility of 78s, I like to only send these to UK addresses. If you are outside the UK and want to buy this then please contact us first to discuss your options.

I can send 3 or 4 78s for the same postage price and  will discount postage for bulk purchases. If you buy more than 1 item  then please wait until you have received a combined invoice from us before paying, as Ebay will not apply the discount automatically. You also get a percentage discount on purchases of more than one item.
