Lot of 30 BLUEBIRD label original 10" Swing JAZZ/BIG BAND/Dance/FOX-TROT 78s INSTANT COLLECTION! - Price is for one lot of 30, randomly selected from the larger group.  13 lots available total.  Lots of collectible stuff in this collection.  Most of these would cost you $5-10 individually on ebay, particularly given the nice condition of most of them.  Artists include - Glenn Miller, Sonny Dunham, Shep Fields, Charlie Barnet, Johnny Hodges, Freddy Martin, Fats Waller, Ozzie Nelson, Ethel Waters, Les Brown, Gray Gordon, Vincent Lopez, Vaughan Monroe, Abe Lyman, Les Brown, Four King Sisters, Dinah Shore, Tony Pastor, Jack Harris, Johnny Messner, Jan Savitt, Musical Musketeers, Jimmy Ray, Mart Kenney, Erskine Hawkins, Dick Stabile, Bob Hamilton Trio, Dorothy Lamour, Frank Diley, Jerry Blaine, Red Nichols, Ronnie Munro, Irv Carroll, Carl Lorch,  Alvino Rey, Van Alexander, Rudy Vallee, Jimmie Lunceford, Jimmy Livingston, Joe Sudy, Artie Shaw, Art Kassell, Teddy Powell, Hal McIntyre, Bob Chester, Mitchell Ayers, Jesse Crawford, Erskine Hawkins, Larry Clinton, and more.  These are almost all from a single collection and therefore, there are hardly any duplicates at all.  Most are different releases.  Even if purchasing more than one or two lots, I can supply virtually all different records.  Condition is overall superb clean and ready to play ranging from V/V- to E+.  I'd say the average is conservatively in the E- range with few below V+.  Possibly just a couple at V/V-.  At least 1/2 of the discs in each lot do come sleeved, most with a Bluebird original company sleeve in varying conditions, though some may ship with other various company sleeves.  Any un-sleeved discs will be placed between those with sleeves to prevent any damage in shipping. 

These lots will be double boxed and padded/packed very well.  Buy with confidence.

I do combine shipping.  PLEASE REQUEST PAYMENT TOTAL when you're finished bidding. Thanks!  If you're buying more than one large lot, I cannot combine shipping, however, because each lot must ship individually boxed.

N (78) NM (LP). As new and un-played
N- (78) NM- (LP). Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.
E+ (78) VG++ (LP). Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.
E (78) VG+ (LP). Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.
E- (78) VG (LP). Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.  LP: Some wear, scratches and scuffs, but no skipped or repeat grooves.
V+ (78) VG- LP. V+ is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion.
