4 BLUEBIRD BLUES 78 RPM with taped edges, sold AS IS!

This is 4 Bluebird 78's that a previous owner taped the edges of.  Rather than try to clean them,  I'll let someone more adventurous than me try to save them.  Stickers on all labels. Grading is on the VJM scale below, and is aside from the obvious damage...all play through with no skips after the tape at the beginning of each side.

Bluebird B9042 JAZZ GILLUM "I'm Gonna Leave You On The Outskirts Of Town" / "Woke Up Cold In Hand" G to G+, greying

Bluebird B9003 DR CLAYTON "Pearl Harbor Blues" / "My Own Blues" V-, A-side less noisy than B-side.

Bluebird 34-0722 SONNY BOY WILLIAMSON "Win The War Blues" / "Check Up On My Baby" Strong recording, A-side sounds very good, V+, B-side a bit more surface noise V-   

Bluebird 34-0743 BIG MACEO "Chicago Breakdown" / "Winter Time Blues" A-side has a lot more grooves with tape than the rest.  Song is awesome, music well worth the surface noise! V-

I'm not taking returns on these records, SOLD AS IS. I will insure the lot for the selling price, and pack them as if they were mint, don't worry.

 I pack 78's well and ship them quickly. I expect the box to weigh 5 lbs. when packed,  so INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS be aware of increased shipping costs.

The VJM Grading System

N   As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).

N-  Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.

E+  Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.

E    Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.

E-  Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches. 

V+  V+ is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and genral use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced.

V   Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.

V-  Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level.

G+  Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.

G   Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.

G-  Music still prominent, but wear and scatch damage extensive.

F    Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.

P    Unplayable.

NB: Damage to labels  should be noted whenever present.
