Description
Frank Sinatra 10-2-1943 8" Acetate Record, One Of A Kind, live recording of Sunday Monday or Always (2:30) & Pistol Packing Mama (2:00) and another short snippet that I can't listen to because it is too close to the center, on slow it sounds like another short song, possibly incomplete. 8 inch Howard Recording Disc with 4 holes and blue & white label, dated 10-2-43, both tracks play Good to Very Good with some noise, the visual grade would be VG with some scratches, could use a cleaning that may improve the sound a bit but I am not comfortable cleaning such a rare album and take the risk of damaging it. It does play thru without any skips in the music, the only flaw in the cut seems to be that it is hard to catch the first groove, other than that it is solid. I can't find anything on the date but I do know that Pistol Packing Mama was not released in the 40's but was in the 70's. This is a one of a kind record so who knows the value of it, could be 5,000 could be 50,000 bucks, So you will get two early live tracks that have been heard by maybe 10 people. There has got to be a huge fan out there that needs this.
Hello and thanks for looking at my stuff.
Feel free to submit an offer on any of my items, and the more items you want the better I can do, and I always combine shipping.
U.S. Shipping: Economy/Media Mail: 3.95, Priority Mail: is available on all items but priority prices are changing all the time and I will need to weigh the item to give a quote.
International Shipping: 15.00-50.00, if set at 50.00 please wait for adjustment before paying. also please ask for a quote and if I ship to your country, unfortunately I will no longer ship internationally without being able to insure the package. Most of the time this will mean priority or registered mail which can be quite expensive. I hate to charge these fees but I have had too many packages come up missing and I am the loser in that situation every time.
I have been dealing in collectable's since 1987 and try and describe things as best as possible. If you have any questions please ask.
Records are cleaned with a Spin Clean (unless new), re inner sleeved if necessary and come with outer plastic sleeve to avoid ring wear.
I am a bidder just like you and hate to get damaged items in because of shoddy packaging. That’s why all my items are packed with care packed, records are shipped in durable record mailers, books are sleeved, padded and sent in bubble mailers or box. No packages with items thrown in a box to clank around from me, I would rather loose a few bucks on shipping to get an expensive item to you undamaged.
Some of my grading guidelines:
Records: NM/VG+/VG/Good/Poor, I don’t use Excellent as a grade, in the old school grading system VG+ is Excellent. I have been dealing and collecting records for almost 25 years, I visually grade accurately and play grade as many as I can.
Coins: I am not an expert but try and give a accurate grade and try and show the best photos I can. If you disagree with a coin grade let me know and I will give it another look.
Books: I do sell a lot of library books, all of these are graded as Acceptable because of the marks, even if it has never been checked out and is in great shape. I stick with the New/Like New/Very Good/Good/Acceptable and Poor in rare cases.
Everything else: I try and stick to the standard method of grading and give the best description possible.
Once again if you have any questions about the quality of any item please ask.
Returns: I am easy to deal with and want you to be happy with your stuff. Returns must be received back within seven days of delivery, Please contact me within 2 days of receiving if there is a problem. Once again easy to deal with and want you to be happy.
