Description 78 rpm Roy Acuff. Shipped with USPS Media Mail. The record is in E shape as graded by the VJM Record grading system (described below).LABEL : Columbia NUMBER : 20559ARTIST : Roy Acuff and His Smoky Mountain Boys SIDE A : SMOKY MOUNTAIN RAGSIDE B : PRETTY LITTLE WIDOW I am a collector, not a dealer and buyer’s satisfaction is of paramount importance to me. Therefore, I have graded the record conservatively I have been collecting records for over 40 years and they have been stored in an environmentally controlled, pet free, smoke free environment. I am selling my records now because I am getting older and my children have no interest in old records. PACKAGING: Records will be packed in a label appropriate sleeve (ie. Capitol record in a Capitol sleeve, Decca in a Decca sleeve, etc.) or a new generic acid free sleeve, sandwiched between 2 layers of bubble wrap or micro foam (depending on number of records in the box), sandwiched between 4 layers of B flute corrugate, and then boxed in a substantial B flute corrugate box. SHIPPING: Records will be shipped via USPS MEDIA MAIL with TRACKING. I ship on Monday, Wednesday and Friday so if you pay on Tuesday, it will most definitely be shipped by the following Friday. Keep in mind, however, with the holidays coming up, delivery may be delayed. RETURNS: Since I am liquidating my collection, returns will not be accepted unless record is incorrectly identified or graded.The VJM Record Grading System:N (78) M (LP).
