Description
10" 78rpm record.
Rex (vertical cut) label #5342
Pre-War Ragtime/Jazz by Roy Spangler.
"Red Onion Rag" (mx.383) b/w "Piano Man" (mx.X82) Comic song by M.J. O'connell w/piano by Frank Banta. Recorded in NYC circa March 1913.
Grade V+. Decent shine, light rubs/scratches. No groove wear. Light label wear/fade. Visual only. I don't have the proper equipment to test play it. One of only two sides recorded by Spangler. Good copy of a very hard to find record.
Grading:
I use the following grading scale:
E+: A choice copy with no wear whatsoever.
E: Virtually no trace of groove wear with minimal traces of use and handling.
E-: Above average with a slight degree of groove wear/marks not enough to seriously detract from audio quality.
V+: Obviously well played, still enjoyable. Noticable greying in the grooves.
V: Very well worn, but still listenable. Expect noticable surface noise. Possibly some stressed grooves.
V-: Pretty well gone. May be possible to coax a little more life out of it using the right stylus.
P: Most likely unplayable. Filler copy.
On records where grades between sides are vastly different I will use a dual grade (ex. E/V-).
I have been collecting 78 rpm records for over 40 years. I try to be very conservative with grading. Most buyers should be very pleased.
Unless otherwise specified, any label issues in the photos are the result of glare from the camera flash and not on the labels themselves.
Shipping:
Records will be securely shipped using cardboard squares and foam peaunts. I've been mailing 78 rpm records for some time now and have not yet lost a record in shipping.
I will combine wins to save on shipping. If you have mutiple wins, please do not pay until receiving an invoice.
I will ship to international locations, however, international shipping has become quite expensive. Please email before bidding if you are outside of the U.S. Be advised I will NOT accept returns on any items shipped outside of the U.S.
Please email me with any questions. Good luck and thanks for looking. I plan on listing around 20 records of the same types every two weeks. Please keep an eye open for more Jazz/Blues/Dance band records.
