SIDE 2

1. TWO PEOPLE IN THE WORLD

THIS 78 IS IN SUPERB CONDITION CONSIDERING IT’S AGE AND THE UNFORGIVING, EASILY SCRATCHED NATURE OF THE HEAVY BAKELITE / SHELLAC MATERIAL. THE GREAT THING ABOUT 78s IS THE DEPTH OF THE GROOVES WHICH MEANS THAT EVEN A RECORD THAT LOOKS QUITE SCRATCHED MAY STILL PLAY PERFECTLY WELL AND THE SOUND QUALITY MAY BE EXCELLENT.

PLEASE NOTE - I USE SPECIALLY CONSTRUCTED EXTRA-STRONG BOX MAILERS WITH ADDITIONAL PADDING TO ENSURE, TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY, THAT YOUR 78 WILL ARRIVE IN ONE PIECE.

BUYER PAYS POSTAGE AND PACKAGING COSTS.
