For Sale: Victor 12" Acoustical Mystery Box Of 60 SOLD!

Post by gramophone-georg »

Here's a really nice 'instant collection' for someone who has just gotten owned by a Victrola or just feels the need to perform ritual shellac sacrifices to the steel needle gods.

It's a stack of 60 NICE Victor acoustical 12" records. You'll get it all... opera, piano, violin, cello, symphonic, light classical, operetta, a couple band selections... even a minstrel disc! (None of that Godless Jass stuff, though, nosiree! I can't be responsible for the eternal damnation of souls, now, can I? :shock: )

I've attached some pics of randomly selected records from the box. All records are sleeved, they are all E- or better except for two I noticed that are likely in the V+ area. Some have stickers on labels, and I think maybe 2 or 3 had label tears where someone removed the stickers. Some of the forum guys say Zippo lighter fluid easily removes these labels. I've never tried it.

Now, any sane individual knows any nice clean 12" acoustical Victor is worth three bucks at minimum, right? BUT NO! I'm SLASHING the price to a mere $150 for 60 good records! FRIENDS!!! That's LESS than $3 a pop!

:? :oops: Err, ahh, anyways... if you've been wanting a nice stack of good playable records, look no further.

In all seriousness... satisfaction guaranteed. I'll gladly ship in the USA, carefully packed, via media mail for exact cost. USPS says that for a 30 lb box to go from Oregon to NYC is under $20, for example. Overseas, I'll gladly get you a price.

And yes, I have proper materials for safely shipping large lots of fragile 78s.

These are now SOLD, thanks!

It is an immutable law of nature that any sizable stack of 12" Victors must include the Lucia Sextette... 8-)

Don't tell anyone but I think there are actually two copies. :oops: Of just that one record, though, so I added an extra. :squirrel:

We can't disrupt the matrix, now, can we?
