Description
My Sunday bonus item this week is an ORIGINAL EARLY 1940s-ERA U.S. DECCA RECORDS TRINIDAD CALYPSO 78 RPM record, Decca Records catalog number 17429. Side 1: 'Soffie Bellah' - Lord Invader accompanied by John 'Buddy' Williams And his Blue Rhythm Orchestra; Side 2: 'Scorpion' - Atilla The Hun accompanied by Cyril Monrose Orchestra. Visual condition of play surface is a high VG/low VG+ with a moderate to fair amount of surface marks, scuffs, and very light scratches, none of which can be felt and none of which will affect play. Record also has a slow warp which will preclude its playing with a lightweight tone arm, you will have to play this record using a somewhat heavier weight tone arm and it will play fine with a little background surface noise. Record has no cracks, surface or sub-surface, and no chips. Labels have a little residue from previously removed small stickers, some contact wear, and some wear around the center hole on both sides. Record will be shipped double packed - The record will first be placed in a standard professional cardboard LP mailer with extra cardboard flats on both sides of the record inside the mailer, and the mailer will then be placed into a larger box with cushioning material on both sides of the mailer inside the outer box. I will cover the cost of postal insurance on this shipment, I would not ship a fragile 78 RPM record uninsured. This rare 78 would make a choice addition to any vintage calypso or Carribean music record collection! Winning bidder pays $3.55 media mail postage or actual priority mail postage within the U.S. I WILL SHIP WORLDWIDE - Priority airmail postage to the UK or anyplace in Europe is $36.25, Canada $24.25 - Please e-mail me for postage rates to other areas outside the U.S. WINNING BIDDER PLEASE DO NOT SEND CASH - IT PROBABLY WILL NOT GET HERE! I will give an immediate refund (less shipping) upon return of the 78 if winning bidder is dissatisfied for any reason. Good luck!
