Per Discogs:
US label Royale launched in 1939 as a subsidiary of United States Record Corporation by Eli Oberstein, which began primarily as a reissue vehicle. Most of the early issues used material that was licensed from Berlin-based Ultraphon. Most of these were orchestral recordings by the Berliner Philharmoniker or Orchester Der Deutschen Oper Berlin, but were issued under pseudonyms due to growing anti-German sentiment in the US in the early 1940s.  Oberstein launched his own domestic recording operation in late 1939, when supplies of foreign masters were severed due to escalating conflict in Europe. Although Oberstein assembled a good artist roster and discs were priced to compete with Victor, this was not enough to offset the poor sales and management of the sister label, Varsity. The final Royale recordings were made in August 1940, and the company went bankrupt later that year.

No sleeve.  No warp, skips or scratches - just a few light scuffs. Labels good.
Runoff/matrix information upon request.

You are bidding/purchasing on the item in the  auction title. You will receive the exact  record as  photoed.  Please take a good look at the  photos so that you can judge the  condition of this item. Feel  free to ask me  questions  about  this item or  request additional  photos. 

These records are from a 60+ year-old private collection, 1950’s through1990’s.  Please browse my other offerings regularly as I will be  posting about 100 Lps and  45s in the  coming months.

They may have minor wear or small  defects as expected. Any major defects such as  warps or scratches are noted. These  offerings  have not been professionally cleaned  (ultrasonic  or electrosonic).

To liquidate this collection, I am pricing the records VERY CHEAP!

I  make no representation as to how  the  record or cover will grade

ANY GRADING IN MY LISTINGS IS JUST  MY  UNPROFESSIONAL OPINION  (based on visible inspection).

Using  Goldmine  standards, I  would  conservatively  estimate at  least a “VG” grade for the  record  but may be  better. 

You  will have to judge  for  yourself.  All items are priced very  low.

Records are not in  cases  but are  safely packed in sturdy mailers, and  quickly mailed USPS as soon  as  payment is received.

I am  committed to making this a great bargain  purchase  experience for you  anyway  I can. 

Thank you for looking!
