OTHER NOTES: This WONDERFUL RECORD, by one of the HOTTEST bands of the 1920's, is, in my opinion, one of the rarer, harder to get, McKinney's Victors. I was told by Dave Wilborn himself when I worked with him in Detroit in the 1970's that this, I'll Make Fun For You, was the band's theme song. The flip side is a rare example of a Waltz recorded by a really Hot band, showing them in their normal role as a dance orchestra. I Love this record as I know YOU will if you are lucky enough to win it!
I'm Selling off part of my collection to make ends meet. I've loved these great records for many years and I'll be happy to know that they will continue to bring joy in the collections of individuals who will treasure them as I have.
There will be more and better records in future weeks so come back for a look Often! Thank you

GRADING - visual, I do not play all records unless I think it's required based on the visual inspection. N (78) As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed). N- (78) Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage. E+ (78) Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets. E (78) Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches. E- (78) Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches. V+ (78) 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. V (78) Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive. V- (78) Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy graying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level. 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 scratch damage extensive. F (78). Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable. P (78). Unplayable.
