GALES J-V-B 34
Don’t Let The Sun Catch You Crying My Eyes Keep Me In Trouble
Great and Rare DETROIT DOO-WOP. Deep R&B Ballad b/w a BLUES belter...very similar to the Muddy Waters song with the same title.
This record has been sitting safely in my collection for many years, and is now for AUCTION.
POPSIKE indicates that a copy sold on eBay in 2010 for $453 in V+ condition.
CONDITION: V- Scuffy copy but plays above grade. Label has a name written on both sides.

Standard 78 Grading:
N-   NEW MINUS - Highest grade used. Appears unplayed. Full luster. Slight signs of handling
E+   EXCELLENT PLUS - Full luster remains. Very few careful plays. Slightest indications of use or handling.
E    EXCELLENT - Almost full luster. Mild signs of play,  but no serious wear, scratches or scuffs.
E-  EXCELLENT MINUS - Some luster remains,  but record has some apparent wear, scuffs and / or scratches. Still a pretty nice 78, acceptable to most collectors.
V+  VERY GOOD PLUS - Record has considerable wear, scuff and / or scratches. Still plays pretty well but is clearly a used record. An AVERAGE USED 78 is in the V to V+ range.
V   VERY GOOD - Mostly or fully gray from use. Obvious surface noise but probably still plays pretty well. Scuffing and / or scratches more prominent.
V-  VERY GOOD MINUS - Further deterioration. Fully gray with deeper wear and heavy surface noise.
G   GOOD - Very rough, deeply gray, surface noise about equal to music.
F   FAIR - Really beat 78 that may skip. Surface noise exceeds music.

Shipping Details:  78s require special attention. Deep, oversized boxes are used. The 78s are sandwiched between at least four cardboard filler pads (slats) and packed with styrofoam peanuts and/or bubble wrap for safe arrival. I do not use LP mailers or 10 inch pizza box mailers.
Postage: USA: Standard shipping by media mail $6.00.
Postage International: International First Class is $27.00. Canada is $20.00 I cannot declare lower values for customs.  
Background:  I have been a collector and occasional seller since 1967. You can buy with confidence because I am an experienced grader and packer.
Guaranty:  Records are fully guaranteed. Return within 30 days for full refund if not satisfied. Buyer pays return postage. There has been very little loss, breakage or dissatisfaction over the years. 
Watch for future rare and great Blues, R&B, Doo-Wop and Rock & Roll 45s and 78s.
