10" 78 RPM shellac record by Kansas Joe McCoy (under the alias "Georgia Pine Boy") on Decca 7828.

Titles: Look Who's Coming Down the Road / The World Is A Hard Place To Live In 

Recorded: September 5, 1935 in Chicago, Illinois.

The A-side is a direct copy of Tommy Johnson's "Maggie Campbell Blues." 

Grade: E+

The disc is still shiny/glossy and plays like it is brand new. A-side is clean with minimal spindle wear. There is minimal of scuffing on the bottom-right corner of the B-side from going in and out of sleeves, but it does not affect playback. Otherwise, it is a pristine copy. No chips, cracks, etc. 

I grade each record after a test-play and visual inspection.

I package records with the utmost care that a historical record deserves. I understand the fear of having a record arrive in pieces. I ensure all records are sleeved, sandwiched between several rigid cardboard pads, cushioned securely in bubble wrap, and shipped in an oversized box with packing paper so there is no loose movement. This record comes with a tan paper sleeve (not pictured).

All offers made in good faith are considered.

Bundle deals are available for any set of records I sell. Please message me with any questions/ inquiries.

I use the Vintage Jazz Mart (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+  An average condition 78 in which scuffs and general 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.
