Al Jolson At Ease

"On October 27, 1946, Al Jolson paid an impromptu visit to the Barry Gray Show at WOR, mutual. The program that followed created such a furor, that it soon became quite evident that radio history had been made. In responce to an overwelming demand by the listening audience for copies of recordings of the show, it was decided to put out a limited number of albums. The original records of the show were acquired by Sig Schy through whosr reports this collector's item has been made possible. Photos courtesy of Sam Vandervert. Mr Schy wishes to express his thanks to the many people who assisted him."

This is set #88. There ARE NONE of the original photos with this auction. Records are all in great condition. I'd say E- condition. Labels in great condition as well. Album cover shows light wear and needs a good cleaning. Some flaking of the cover material on the top and bottom of the binding edge. No splitting on the record pages.

This is one great and rare item to add to your collection. Don't miss out on this.

Grading:

M-  Perfect copy we seldom use this grade
E+  A choice copy with no wear whatsoever
E     Excellent only minimal traces of use
E-   Above average record with only a slight degree of groove wear
V+  Noticeable graying in the grooves
V    Very well worn expect surface noise to be significant
V-   Poor condition only the very rarest would be of any interest

PLEASE DO NOT be alarmed by my low starting bid. These records are in great shape and for the most part I under estimate the condition so my buyers will not be disappointed when they arrive. I sell a large volume of records and start the bidding low. My feeling is that if something in the lot is valuable then the bidding will go up. I don't have time to look up and price individual records. I sell 5,000+ per year and work by myself and need to move inventory as I continually buy and buy. This method is what works best for me. Check out my auctions & feedback and BID AWAY!!!!!!

Please E-mail me with any questions you may have.

Payment: I accept Paypal as the only online source. If you would like to pay by mail please email me before bidding for approval

Domestic Shipping: I ship using USPS Media Mail or Priority, you decide when you make the payment. Tracking and Insurance are now included in all my shipments. Shipping cost will be calculated for you for this set. I do combine multiple winnings into one shipment

Please be advised that when shipping Media Mail it may take some time for you to receive your records. I ship within 4 days of payment. Takes a lot of time to pack boxes of 78's to insure they arrive intact and I ship up to 40 boxes per week, thus the potential of 4 days between payment and shipment. Also shipping Media Mail can take up to 9 days to deliver as advertised by the USPS and I've seen it take longer going from the east coast to the west coast. There is a possibility of 2 weeks to receive your records so please be patient and be kind to my feedback!

International Shipping: This item will ship USPS International Priority

Insurance: Domestic buyers and International buyers insurance is included in shipping charge

Please be assured that you records will arrive intact. I use oversized boxs with lots of stuffing. Most of the time records will be in sleeves. If not in sleeves then chipboard will be placed between records. Cardboard is sandwiched around records placed every 5 records. Whole lot is then taped up so they do not shift in shipment. I sell and ship 5,000+ records a year from 1 record to 50 per box and have an excellent track record. Only ones that didn't make it intact were because the Postal Employees used the box as a medicine ball. Check out my feedback and you will see I get many compliments on my packaging
