This year’s book list includes a number of important and desirable items. The minimum bids have
been kept very low, considering the scarcity of some items and the cost of others which still might
be in print. While bargains are indeed possible, I’d suggest, as usual, to bid realistically for those
items of particular interest. Bids of any amount are, of course, welcomed.

78 rpm ALBUM SETS
Grading is for record condition.
The albums are not necessarily equally fine, but any particularly noticeable damage will be described. Collectors should specify whether or not albums are wanted. The 12” size would require special oversized packing material and could
add substantially to the shipping costs out of the U.S.
