Description
If you like collecting World War 2 memorabilia then you may already be familiar with the name George Formby. Formby's trademark was playing the ukulele-banjo in a highly syncopated style in addition to his comical voice/singing style. This selection of records range in vintage from the mid 30s to 1940s all of which are in Excellent condition (most are very low noise and show minimal wear) - see the photos and hear the un-restored sound recordings. All up there are 13 records in excellent condition which is not typical of the time due to the popularity of the artist and their contents. In addition, I have the two different versions of "Bless 'em All" popular war medley. Many of these have not been played on a gramophone and as such, the audio quality is excellent. Postage of ~7-9 records (3kg) is $9.90 so the winner will have to decide if they want a selection from the list below or to pay the additional postage charges for all 13 records (around $15 postage - will have to calculate this at the end).
