Welcome to another Auction from PLAN 9 and RECORD FINDERS!

Bidders outside the US, please take note: We DO NOT devalue items for the sake of avoiding customs fees for your respective countries. This fee should be taken into consideration BEFORE you bid on our items!

Up for bid is a rare 78 "Blue Moon/Love You Most of All" by Sam Cooke. This was released on the Keen label (K-4-2008). There is an odd thing about this label: in my research, I noticed that all the history for the black Keen label 78s by Sam Cooke that  have sold or is being sold all have "Rex Productions, Inc 8479 Higuera St. Culver City, Calif." under the Keen logo at the top. This 78 does not have that address on the top of the  label, but does have "Rex Productions, Inc. Culver City, Calif" at the bottom in small print. Another difference is that the other Keen 78s have "Higuera-BMI" to the right of the spindle hole, while this 78 has "Hermosa Music Publ., BMI" to the right of the spindle hole. 78 has no chips or cracks, with visible scuffs and scratches on each side. There is light wear on the inner labels. I have listened to this 78, and both sides play through with no skips but with noticeable surface noise (constant hiss, crackle, some pops).  Don't miss out on this very rare gem! If multiple items are won, we will combine items for a shipping discount. Any questions feel free to email. Item will be securely packaged and shipped via media mail within the US. Shipping outside the US is via USPS First Class International. In regards to a return policy: In the event that this item is not as it is described, we do accept returns. This has been very rare for us to have to do so, whatever the circumstance. Buyer must pay shipping to return item back to us for a full refund. Item must be returned in the condition that it was in when we shipped it. Please understand, this is not intended for buyers to abuse this system, so SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY.
