You are buying the above pictured 10" 78 rpm Record.  A vintage original copy NOT a current reissue!
Uncommon 1939 New York Fair 78. Presumably sold at the Russian Pavilion. Numbered bot 5396 and 6366.

An Average Copy. VG. Modest wear, still Glossy! Pressing defect on the lead in and also on the other side in the track. Feels rough to the touch and will probably sound or skip.

More 78s in my eBay store in the VINTAGE 78s Category!

All records are graded BY EYE. None have been play graded! I have been collecting and selling records for over 40 years, and have sold many on Amazon, eBay and at Northern California Record Shows. I can't claim to be perfect when grading, but overall, I have had few complaints.

Most of what I sell are LPs and 45s and my grading chops are probably not as tight on 78s. I have talked to some people who sell them more often than me and gotten some tips. I should not be wildly off, though none have been 'play graded'. The Photos do not give a perfect look at the condition. Sometimes scratches and general wear are not visible, though the general level of 'gloss' seems to be OK. Read the description as well as view the pictures.

All records sold 'As Is'. Look at the photos for label particulars and label wear.

All records will be shipped in an 11" x 11" x 3" box with sheet styrofoam padding. They will be sent via Media Rate Mail and will be tracked.
You can combine buys and save on postage! USA Customers can either put everything in your 'Cart' and ask me for a total or simply buy them all and I will refund the excess shipping charges when they ship. Remember, that while something is in your 'Cart' it can be bought by someone else as the listing remains 'Live' until I send you a total!  USA shipping costs for extra records will be modest, $1 a record or less. I have to buy the shipping boxes and prices for those have gone up, hence the slightly higher shipping charges!

Overseas customers who wish to combine shipping must email me with what they want and I will remove the listings and make a custom listing with the corrected weight etc for you. Until I do that, the records are still 'Live' and available for someone else!

Thank you for looking!
