RUTH ETTING 78 rpm Record GLAD RAG DOLL I’ll Get By Columbia 1733D 1929 RARE

$

25

This is a 78 rpm record issued on the Columbia Viva-Tonal label as 1733D, featuring jazz age vocalist Ruth Etting. The record features Miss Etting performing “Glad Rag Doll” and “I’ll Get By” and was issued in early 1929. Ruth Etting was the subject of a 1955 film starring Doris Day and James Cagney titled “Love Me or Leave Me”. She was a major recording star with 60 hits to her credit. This particular record appears to be rather rare. The record grades an E-/VG+ as it plays well with clearly heard performance - there are a few light visible scratches and there is the typical shellac hiss/background noise, but nothing that interferes with the performance. There is a small edge chip on the I’ll Get By side, so you have to be careful about where to drop the needle

This is a 78 rpm record issued on the Columbia Viva-Tonal label as 1733D, featuring jazz age vocalist Ruth Etting.  The record features Miss Etting performing “Glad Rag Doll” and “I’ll Get By” and was issued in early 1929.  Ruth Etting was the subject of a 1955 film starring Doris Day and James Cagney titled “Love Me or Leave Me”.  She was a major recording star with 60 hits to her credit.  This particular record appears to be rather rare.  The record grades an E-/VG+ as it plays well with clearly heard performance - there are a few light visible scratches and there is the typical shellac hiss/background noise, but nothing that interferes with the performance.  There is a small edge chip on the I’ll Get By side, so you have to be careful about where to drop the needle, but this shouldn’t pose a problem.  The record measures 10” in diameter.  Please note that all of my records are cleaned with the Disc Doctor’s Miracle Record Cleaner.  Please view my other auctions for more 78s….

Shipping

Canadian buyers, please note that although we offer shipping through Champlain, NY for our American customers, we are a registered business located in Canada and must therefore charge applicable GST/HST/PST to Canadian buyers - please read further to understand our shipping methodology and note all costs so that there is no misunderstanding when rating shipping costs post-sale.

I ship to my US clients through USPS services as long as the value of the item does not exceed $800. For items that sell for over $800.00, I must ship to my U.S. clients using Canada Post. This is due to restrictions outlined in the North American Free Trade Agreement, chapter 3.21.  I am located in Canada but I have a carrier service to bring my parcels directly across the border on either Tuesday or Wednesday to be shipped out of the USPS postal outlet in Champlain, N.Y. In addition to the actual shipping cost, I do charge a $3.00 handling fee to help offset the cost of this special US service and new packaging for this piece. Please note that even with the handling fee that it is less expensive and is a quicker service than using Canada Post. 

To my Canadian clients, I use Canada Post for shipping, as I am based in Canada - legally, I am not permitted to ship to you through the US, so do not rely on the US shipping calculator for costs. 

To my International clients I can ship by either Canada Post or by USPS (in order to use USPS for intl. clients, the items must sell for under $200.00). 

Please feel free to write with any inquiries in regards to cost of shipping to you. 

Payment

Because I have a scheduled pick-up on either Tuesday or Wednesday, I would require your Paypal payment by Monday at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time. 

BUYER PAYS SHIPPING - PLEASE DO NOT PAY UNTIL I CONTACT YOU AFTER THE AUCTION to avoid error. The reason for this is that package sizes and weights are estimates only as we cannot fully package items before they are sold. Please e-mail us for a shipping quote or wait until after the auction for a precise shipping cost. Our auctions end on Sunday evening, so I will be in touch with the correct invoice on Sunday evening or by the latest Monday morning, after we have had the chance to carefully package your item. 

I would request any client to get in touch with me upon winning an item, who is not able to pay by Monday at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, so I can get an idea of when to expect your payment. 

PLEASE TAKE NOTE: CANADIAN RESIDENTS PAY GST/HST and QUEBEC RESIDENTS PAY BOTH THE GST AND PST TAX. 

Terms of Sale

Being auctions, we do not accept returns unless an item has been significantly not as described.  We describe very thoroughly, both with photos and text, but in the case that an item has been misrepresented, we will accept a return for full refund, including shipping costs.

International customers, please do not ask us to falsify customs documentation:

"Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding / buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up - do not confuse them for additional shipping charges. We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior."
