VINYL LP RECORDS
1930's - 1940's BIG BAND & SWING |
From my own collection started in 1963. Others I picked up at
estate sales only if they were Mint condition. All albums, with few exceptions, are Near
Mint to Mint condition, and jackets will be Excellent to Near Mint. All are Hi-Fi
monophonic unless indicated as being in Stereo. Records will be rated on a 1 to 10 scale;
10 being Mint, maybe played once. The first number is the condition of the record, the
second number is the condition of the jacket. A number in brackets ( ) after a title
indicates the number of copies I have of that title. |
