War Re Enactment of Scenes from the Austrian-Italian War, that is the Isonzo Front and the War in the Alps

Lieutenant Decio Raggi

 L'eroica morte del Tenente Raggi Scena della guerra Italo-Austriaca

Decio Raggi, a quasi-mythical figure of World War I:  Lieutenant of the Italian army, bearer of glory of the Casale Brigade , the so-called Regiment of the Forlì

His assaults at the Austro-Hungarian fort, on the slopes of Mount Calvario (or Podgora), at the head of the Ninth company of the Eleventh Regiment . On 19 July 1915 he went into action, together with his company, with the aim of opening a passage in the cross-country adversary on the western slopes of Podgora. The advance proceeded slowly due to the difficulties of the land and to the enemy fire. The Ninth Company stormed an Austrian trench and in the front row Lieutenant Raggi climbed up on the side of the trench, defying the enemy fire and showing courage, to incite his men to resist and fight, to the cry "a gnié more inciun " , in a genuineromagnolo dialect . He was hit by a bullet, he continued to incite the infantrymen, then, avoiding being taken prisoner, he managed to fold between the friendly lines, taking himself back and letting himself finally roll for about 60 meters. He died in the hospital in Cormons at 21 July 24, armed with religious comforts, continuing with his last words to give courage and strength to his company

A Quick NOTE ON GRADING AND SHIPPING:

As you can see from my feedback, I try hard to earn your POSITIVE FEEDBACK and FIVE STAR RATINGS.

If for any reason your transaction was NOT SATISFACTORY, pls contact me and I will work something out with you. YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A REASON TO GIVE ME A NEGATIVE RATING or a LOW STAR RATING.

Quick note on grading:

The Grade (Excellent to Fair, I don't give Mint) refers to the WEAR of the record. Any other defects are stated separately

When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to F), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise.
"SUPERQUIET" is basically noiseless, like a vinyl pressing.
"VERY QUIET" is an exceptionally quiet record for a given pressing.
"Quiet" is a record that is a great example without undue noise for a give pressing.

These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment.

Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.

If you win multiple items, pls send me an INVOICE REQUEST to calculate the correct postage. Ebay check out will not give you the multiple item discount!

Records will be packed safely between corrugated cardboard in a sturdy box with plenty of padding for safe shipment.

Shipment is usually Media Mail, unless another service is requested. Shipping is at your risk, I will be happy to insure items at your cost.

I charge actual postage plus a small fee for packing materials

As always, I guarantee your satisfaction. If you don't like the item, just return it, and I will refund the full purchase price.

If you are in the San Francisco area, I encourage pick-up in person.

US Domestic Shipping:

Here is a guideline for US Media Mail Shipping:

Prices below are for regular 78 rpm records. Up to about 5 records, I will ship Edison Discs for the same rates. Albums from Album Sets count as 1 record. Above that and for international shipments, it will be actual weight plus a small packing charge (1-3$ depending on size of shipment)

1 record: 4.75 – 5.00$

2 records: 5.75$

5 records: 7.50$

10 records: 9.50$

MANY MORE RECORDS: Don't worry. I safely ship 40 - 50 pounds of records double boxed in moving boxes, and even then Media Mail will probably not exceed 30$.

Please send me a message if you would like to lower your shipping rates!

International Buyers:

I am very happy to ship records worldwide.

Please use the EBAY shipping cost only as a guideline. My actual charges are usually lower

One record usually ships for 25 – 28$ for 10" 35$ for most 12" records (Less for Canada).

I can get SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER rates from FedEx and the US Postal service for any kind of parcel weight, and will make use of all the cost-saving shipment methods

Pls contact me for a shipping estimate, or send me an invoice request after close of auction.
