These are all in amazing shape.  Solid E for sure.  As you can see in the photos there is a small tear in the label of 2135, Kingdom come/Work upon the levee.  Other than that they are just about perfect.  I'm not accepting offers on these.  I'm starting the auction at $200, which is a steal when you look up and see what other people have payed for some of them.  Unfortunately, I can only post 12 photos.  If you want to see them all just send me a message and I can email them to you.  I took 36 photos and I'll send them to you.  Shipping on these is $8. 
Shipping: I've shipped 78s all over the place. I use the sandwich method-in a plain gold paper sleeve between 4 pieces of cardboard taped up, then into a box surrounded by balled up newspaper or bubble wrap.   In the US I can ship 1 to 3 78s for about $6.  I'll combine shipping too, of course.  International orders-WAIT FOR AN INVOICE!!
Please wait until I get you an invoice from me to pay!!  (not the one automatically generated by e-bay)
Any questions, concerns, comments whatever- please contact me. I also love getting offers on records. Why wait till the end of the auction? If you want it, then message me. Maybe we can work something out. At the end of the day, when I get home, I'll get back to you. Thanks for the interest and keep checking back. I've got a bunch of 78s to post. Mainly pre-war but I do occasionally sell post war 78s, 45's and LPs. 
Also please add me to your saved searches. I'll be adding new things quite regularly. Also please don't forget to leave feedback. I actually read it and use it to better my listings, packaging what have you.
(By the way-I'm also always interested in buying records. I prefer to buy whole lots. If you're within 200-300 miles of Asheville North Carolina and you've got records to sell then please send me a message. I'm looking for Lps 45s or 78s. Jazz, blues, country, western swing, rock a billy, jump blues, RNB, soul, funk, soul jazz, reggae, ska, rocksteady, punk, alternative exotica/lounge, soundtracks. I also want to drive and pick them up.)

The VJM Record Grading System. N (78) M (LP). As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed). N- (78) M- (LP). Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage. E+ (78) VG+ (LP). Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets. E (78) VG (LP). Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches. E- (78) VG- (LP). Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches. LP: Some wear, scratches and scuffs, but no skipped or repeat grooves. V+ (78) G+ LP. V+ is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced. LP: Below average with scuffs and scratches on fewer than half the tracks. No skips or repeat grooves. V (78) G (LP). Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive. V- (78) G- (LP). Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level. LP: Lowest Grade. Audible scratches, etc. on more than half the tracks. Listening uncomfortable. G+ (78). Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches. G (78). Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise. G- (78). Music still prominent, but wear and scatch damage extensive. F (78). Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable. P (78). Unplayable.
