Description
New home needed for a collection of vintage classical music Shellac 78rpm record sets in original era, but re-labelled, folders. Judging by the pen and ink labelling the filing of these discs into record set folders was done many years ago.

- · HMV Label, Chopin. Set of four records. DB2031 and DB2032 Fantasie in F Minor played by Alfred Cortot, DB1123 and DB1124 Studies, Op 10 played by Wilhelm Vintage Classical Music 78rpm Shellac record sets – Beethoven, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Schubert

- · HMV Label, 5 record set. ED173, ED174, ED175, ED176 and ED 177. Tchaikovsky Symphony No 3 in D Major played by the National Symphony Orchestra of America and conducted by Hans Kindler.
All of the records appear to be in excellent condition and free of any visible scratches. However, I have only played a sample of them, not every single disc so there may be some that do not play perfectly. The record sleeves and folders, are in very good condition for their age, although some of the sleeves show minor wear and damage. In general though all of the record sets are complete and in excellent condition considering they are 80-90 years old.
As the records are made of Shellac rather than vinyl, they are extremely heavy and weigh 15.9kg before any packaging! I have quoted delivery by Economy Courier at £9.50 to any UK mainland destination. Payment by Paypal please, and I will send the record sets within two days of receiving payment.
However, I am happy for a buyer to pay cash on collection without the delivery charge if you would prefer to collect the records from Burgess Hill in Mid Sussex.
Any questions, please contact me via Ebay and I will be happy to provide any further information required.
