Description

Being offered is a 7" E. Berliners gramophone record, single sided, stamped 86

The record is etched The Braes of Auchterarder & Annie Laurie played by The Royal Artillery Band, London

This is believed to be before 1901, when the Company first started to use labels instead of etching the information.

It is offered as a collectors piece, as shown, as I am not able to play the record.

The Boring, but Important, Information when Bidding

 

I try to accurately photograph and describe each item, but please contact me, preferably at least 24 hours before the end of the listing, if you require any further information, before bidding.

 

All Items are Originals, unless otherwise stated, and may also be viewed by arrangement

 

Postage and packing  is normally shown separately for the U.K., Europe & Worldwide, except for items weighing over 5 kg.  Please contact me for an estimate of the likely cost, if not shown below before bidding on items which are required to be sent overseas, as some heavier items can cost many times the U.K. postage

 

Payment in the U.K. can be by Paypal, Personal Cheque drawn on a U.K. Bank, or U.K. Postal Order

 

Payment from Other Countries must be through Paypal, Sterling cheques drawn on a U.K. Bank or cash by agreement (subject to Bank Charges for non U.K. currency) ONLY. I am unable to accept cheques drawn on non U.K. Banks, because of the high charges made in encashing them

 

The successful bidder must contact me within 3 days of the auction ending and payment is due within 7 days – if you are likely to be away, please contact me prior to the end of the auction

 

All items are sent by the next available post, following receipt of cleared funds, and packed suitably to withstand the normal rigours of the postal system.

 

Unless stated otherwise, recorded delivery and full insurance are an advisable extra, although a Certificate of Posting is always obtained, which offers up to £28 compensation, within the U.K., in the unlikely event of an item going astray.  All items are sent 1st class through the Post Office, unless otherwise stated. Overseas buyers are responsible for any import charges

 

Multiple purchases can often save on postage & packing charges


Thank you for reading this and good luck with your bidding
