    This purchase is for a third party, a keen collector, as a surprise. I sent this vendor, lorber588, an email to confirm the product details before purchasing. They responded within the day, confirming the facts, and they answered every question in detail and I really appreciate that candor. The item arrived just an hour ago in the exact description as advertised and in pristine condition. I'm very pleased, and I'll be adding this vendor onto my favorites list for future purchases. Thank you!

    Beautifully packed and promptly shipped. Exactly as described and at a good price for someone who wants to play the stuff on his 1910 Columbia to people never heard or seen such exotica !! Very genuine seller, would recommend..,..Sadly one of the discs broke but I cannot fault the packaging and it was in the middle of a bundle, should have been ok chest la vie - will have to get the glue out and see what I can do..
