SPECIAL One-time sale of Historic Recordings on cassette. I am posting this to various phonograph newsgroups as I want to get these into the hands of those who will appreciate them. This is not a commercial venture. About 10 years ago, my late friend and fellow record collector, Dave Goldenberg produced a fascinating and superb audiotape and booklet volume of early recordings about Philadelphia, PA. You don?t need to live in Philadelphia to appreciate its contents. There are some extremely rare recordings on the set. 21 tracks in all (see below). The package is called :?Philadelphia All The Time: Sounds of The Quaker City 1896-1947?. It includes an 50-page ILLUSTRATED booklet with the history of each recording. And the tape is Dolby encoded. Dave was not into marketing and the package only had limited distribution, which is a shame. I would like to get these in the hands of record collectors who will appreciate the recordings and the great info in the booklet so I am making them available to collectors on the record and phonograph collectors? boards at a special closeout price. You don?t have to wait till the end for the price but read on after it. The whole package originally sold for $16.00. And I sold quite a few on ebay at $12.00 plus shipping. In order to cover my time and packing and shipping, I will offer them at only $5.00 postpaid by Media class mail. (That?s less than one cylinder record and a bargain for the RARE recordings included.) But you must act fast! The above price is for payment by cash or check. I?ll be happy to take Paypal but I can?t afford to absorb the fee so The price will be $5.75 if you wish to pay using Paypal. Also if you it sent FIRST class, I?ll do that for 35 cents more. (I know this sounds complicated, but, believe me, I?m not making money on these additions.) And if you are are out of the US, email me for price. (which will be whatever extra charges there are for international postage. Now see what you get.
