A stunningly RARE 12” disc on the collectible Opera Disc label from the early 1900s featuring turn of the century Egyptian singer Youssef El Menialawi (1847-1911), who was one of the earliest Arabic singers to be recorded onto commercial phonograph discs, starting in 1905 for the German firm Beka, and for the British Gramophone company from 1906 until his death in 1911.
Condition: I am afraid I am not able to play 78 rpm records. Please see photos for condition. Recorded is complete (no cracks, missing pieces, etc.), with wear as to be expected for a record of this age. Please inspect the included photos carefully. **ITEM SOLD “AS-IS”**
Terms (Please read carefully): Payment via Paypal is due within THREE (3) DAYS – no exceptions. Buyer pays shipping. **NON-USA BIDDERS: I will ONLY ship outside of the USA using E-bay’s Global Shipping Program, since this is the only way that the parcel is traceable outside of the USA, which protects seller and bidder from loss. This program includes import fees and taxes which are not set by me, are not negotiable, and can be quite high. Please keep this in mind when you bid.**
**ADDITIONAL SPECIAL NOTE FOR NON-USA BIDDERS: It is YOUR responsibility to understand the impact of the Global Shipping Program on the cost of shipments to your country BEFORE YOU BID on my auctions. I DO NOT WORK FOR E-BAY and cannot answer your questions about shipping costs. As clearly stated above, I do not have any control over how much you are charged, nor even any way to know how much you are charged (or will be charged). Please do not send me questions or complaints about this, because I really don’t have any way to help with this. E-bay Customer Service should be able to help you instead.**
US bidders: I am happy to combine items in order to save you money on shipping. Just let me know ahead of time if you are bidding on more than one item and I will send you a new invoice reflecting the correct shipping for all your wins (don’t pay the one sent by E-bay, which will charge the full shipping price for each individual item). Non-USA bidders: My apologies, but according to my recent conversations with E-bay customer service, the Global Shipping Program does not allow for combined shipping on international orders.
Your item(s) will be sent within ten (10) days of receiving cleared payment via Paypal.
