Decca record album set No. A-667 is "Memorial Album, Volume 3" by the Ink Spots. It is dated 1948 and contains the following four individually numbered 10-inch 78 RPM records:
Decca # 23695 -- "Either It's Love or It Isn't" and "I Get the Blues When It Rains"
Decca # 23851 -- "I Want to Thank Your Folks" and "I Wasn't Meant for Love"
Decca # 24111 -- "Do You Feel That Way, Too?" and "Information Please"
Decca # 24192 -- "Home Is Where the Heart Is" and "Sincerely Yours"
Apart from the chip out of the edge of Decca # 23851, which causes the loss of the first few bars on both sides, the records all look to be in about VG+ condition, still beautifully shiny but with some scattered light surface scuffs and needle digs and scratches. I've played them all on my Audio-Technica turntable, and there were no skips or repeats, and mostly just typical light background noise, but with some occasional clicks, pops and ticking. Because of variations in tracking ability, filtering devices and needle weights, I can offer no guarantees as to how well they will play on your equipment.
The album itself is in used and worn condition, with the pocket seams intact, but the spine hinges in serious need of reinforcement, as well some scrapes and stains on the cover, and uneven fading or bleaching at the spine.
International Buyers – Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying. Customs fees are normally charged by the shipping company or collected when you pick the item up. These fees are not additional shipping charges. We won't under-value merchandise or mark the item as a gift on customs forms. Doing that is against U.S. and international laws. COMBINED SHIPPING: See our seller list for other interesting and unusual items, in fact bid on several and you might save on shipping and handling. If you buy multiple items, and if it's feasible and cost-effective for us to ship the items together, we will gladly consider requests to combine shipping at a reduced cost. Just e-mail us, and we can provide combined shipping cost estimates on a case-by-case basis. Depending on weight and other considerations, we typically offer full shipping rate for the first item, then 50 cents or $1.00 per item. And if you are purchasing multiple items, please make the payment as a single payment, rather than trying to pay for each item separately. Oh, and this may sound obvious, but we can't reduce the shipping charges for items on which we offer free shipping.
