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.
