A REALLY EXCELLENT- NEAR MINT COPY OF THIS RARE 1957 XMAS 78

IT'S CHRISTMAS ONCE AGAIN

Frankie Lymon - It's Christmas Once Again

b/w  LITTLE GIRL

 

Bum-bum-bum-bum

Merry voices raised in singing
Carols through the streets are ringing
All because it's Christmas once again

Lovers kiss in public shyly
Mistletoe was hung there slyly
All because it's Christmas once again

Little kiddies' noses flattened on the window pane
Peeking at the dollys and the shiney choo-choo trains
Santa's hitching up his reindeer, has his bag packed tight
Everything is ready for the sleigh ride through the night

Christmas trees with lights are twinkling
Glasses filled with snowflakes sprinkling
All because it's Christmas once again

So here's a wish we keep repeating
Please accept the season's greetings
All because it's Christmas once again

Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum

Franklin Joseph "Frankie" Lymon (September 30, 1942February 28, 1968) was an African American rock and roll/rhythm and blues singer, best known as the boy soprano lead singer of a New York City-based early rock and roll group, The Teenagers. The group was composed of five boys, all in their early to mid teens. The original lineup of the Teenagers, an integrated group, included three African American members, Frankie Lymon, Jimmy Merchant and Sherman Garnes, and two Puerto Rican members, Herman Santiago and Joe Negroni.

The Teenagers' first single, 1956's "Why Do Fools Fall in Love", was also their biggest hit.

After Lymon went solo in mid-1957, both his career and those of the Teenagers fell into decline. By age 25, he was found dead in his grandmother's bathroom from a heroin overdose.

POSTAGE STUFF

Nothing in this world is "FREE" so if you see free postage it means the cost of the post is already in the starting price of the record - eBay have introduced "free postage" so that they can take a % cut of the Postal payment.  I have INCLUDED £3.60 in the start price which just covers basic second class delivery in the UK.

 THIS IS A FRAGILE 78 AND THE ACTUAL COMBINED COST OF SAFE PACKING AND POSTAGE BY 1ST CLASS MAIL / AIRMAIL SMALL PACKET IS - IN THE UK  £ 5, EUROPE £ 8,  AND REST OF WORLD IS £ 12. The £3.60 has been deducted from these postage options...

Because of this new "Innovation" from eBaY There is now no formal way to offer POSTAGE DISCOUNTS for MULTIPLE ITEMS - BUT ..

I AM HAPPY TO OFFER A POSTAGE REBATE  FOR EVERY EXTRA 78rpm RECORD BOUGHT THAT GOES IN THE SAME POSTAL PACKET WHERE POSTAGE IS LISTED AS "FREE". (Ask for details before paying)

10" 78 RPM RECORDS NEED CAREFULLY PACKING, AND I CLAIM TO HAVE THE BEST PACKAGING IN THE WORLD FOR DISPATCHING THEM!!

 THE GREG'S GREAT'S SYSTEM CONSISTS OF A SPECIALLY DESIGNED INNER BOX MADE OUT OF 1" THICK POLYSTYRENE, WHICH THEN GOES INSIDE A DOUBLE CORREGATED STIFF OUTER CARDBOARD CARTON. THE BOXES CAN TAKE UP TO 21 RECORDS,

 

USUALLY FOR MAILING OVERSEAS, I RECOMMEND NO MORE THAN 7 IN A BOX, OTHERWISE IT GOES OVER THE AIRMAIL SMALL PACKET MAXIMUM WEIGHT OF 2Kgs WHICH CAUSES A LARGE HIKE IN POSTAL RATES.

 

I SEND OUT ON AVERAGE ABOUT 30 PARCELS A WEEK AND DISPATCH IS NORMALLY DONE ONCE A WEEK - SO IF YOU DON'T GET YOUR RECORD WITHIN A WEEK IN THE UK, PLEASE DON'T BE TOO SURPRISED - YOU MAY HAVE JUST PAID FOR IT THE DAY AFTER I'VE DONE THE PARCEL RUN!! - ON THE OTHER HAND YOU MAY HAVE HIT IT LUCKY, AND GET THE PARCEL WITHIN A DAY OR TWO!!

 

IF YOU REALLY HAVE AN URGENT REQUIREMENT FOR THE RECORD - BIRTHDAY PRESENT, WEDDING, FUNERAL etc PLEASE TELL ME - (BECAUSE I CAN'T READ MINDS!) I WILL DO MY BEST TO GET IT OUT FOR YOU URGENTLY.

 

IF A RECORD ARRIVES CRACKED OR BROKEN DESPITE MY BEST EFFORTS WITH THIS FANTASTIC PACKAGING I WILL REFUND THE MONEY IN FULL. - JUST SEND ME A QUICK SCAN - IF IT IS A VERY RARE RECORD I MAY ASK YOU TO SEND IT BACK OTHERWISE IT WILL BE YOURS TO KEEP OR DISPOSE OF.

All 78's are packed in my specially designed Polystyrene boxes packed within double thick walled mailing cartons. These are designed to be "Post Office Proof" - but in the INCREDIBLY rare event that a problem occurs please email me a quick pic of any damage and I will send a refund. PLEASE CLICK ON "ME" TO READ MORE DETAILS OF MY SERVICE.

I think returning broken 78's to me is a waste of money and resources!!
