This item is not for sale. Gripsweat is an archive of past sales and auctions, none of the items are available for purchase.

You are bidding on Three rock 'n' roll 10" 78s:
ELVIS PRESLEY: Love Me Tender/Any Way You Want Me (HMV, POP 253, 10" 78) ELVIS PRESLEY: Jailhouse Rock/Treat Me Nice (RCA, RCA 1028, 10" 78) Both from the film soundtrack GENE VINCENT & THE BLUE CAPS: Bluejean Bop/Who Slapped John (Capitol, CL 14637, 10" 78)
These all look well played and will need to be decently wash cleaned before play. I remember them playing through without skips but with obvious background when I had a 78 player. A wash might help!
These are offered purely as nice 'things' to own and as nothing more than a collection fillers for fans of 1950s rock 'n' roll. Also beware that although I will pack very carefully, using bubble wrap to hold the records away from directly touching the extra-sturdy cardboard packaging, I cannot guarantee that these will arrive each in one piece and I do not refund for 78s broken in the post. Please bear this in mind if bidding.
*    *    *    * Records generally have hairline marks from going in and out of sleeves - I do not mention these unless they cause audible noise. All records are play tested unless explicitly stated otherwise. Most of the records I am selling play at "Excellent" or "Very Good" as per Record Collector grading. Any specific defects are otherwise described in the listing. Please look at the photos carefully for condition of sleeves/labels. 
All items won, up to a value of £50.00, will be sent as Royal Mail 'signed for'. If items are bid above £50.00 (or multiple items combine to more than £50), they will be sent as Royal Mail Special Delivery, so that parcels are correctly insured against loss or damage in transit. If you win multiple items, please wait for me to invoice with correct postage. Note that the postage costs stated include packaging costs. Where possible, packaging will be recycled but sturdy/secure.
Combined postage *for UK buyers only* - 6 single LPs costs the same to post as 1 single LP. Note that if you win items in multiple formats, (e.g., an LP and a CD), these have to be sent as multiple parcels (though I can bundle up 7" records with an LP).
*Non-UK bidders* please note that I use eBay's Global Shipping Programme, which means every item won has to be packaged and sent separately so combined postage is not possible.
Non-paying high bidders will be blocked from bidding on future items.
*    *    *    * Unless stated otherwise, all items are from my own collection. Most has been in storage for nearly 20 years. Lockdowns made me wonder why I have multiple copies of records that I will never listen to. There are about 8,000 more items to come from my rambling progressive, jazz fusion, folk, blues, 1950s stereo classical and easy listening, psychedelic, reggae, ambient, spoken word, comedy, railway, field recordings, electronic and occasionally just plain 'out there' collection.
