Victor Monarch Red Seal (Imported) 91008

Play-graded using a 1970's BSR record player, 33/45/78, with a stylus for 78 rpm records. 

Correct speed: 68.18 rpm

Enrico Caruso: Cielo e Mar; recorded on November 30, 1902. Gramophone matrix 2874b.

Wear to label at ten o’clock position, as pictured. Residue from price sticker farther in, at about the same position. Bubbling to shellac in outside dead wax. Unsure if pressing defect. Light rubs.

Otherwise, label and lettering are nice and bright!

Plays V++/E- Most of the recording is remarkably quiet and free from surface noise beyond a low hiss. The first half has a bit of occasional blasting and two or three brief areas of slightly greater surface noise.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Be assured that the record will be securely packaged.
