E (Excellent): Surface noise low. smooth, uniform. Not irregular or crackling. Easily disregarded in listening. No perceptible distortion. V (Very Good): Surface noise somewhat more prominent; light foreign noises, but slight distortion, if any; noises not seriously distracting. G (Good): A moderate amount of surface noise; background may be somewhat irregular and crackling; some foreign noises, and a little distortion; on the whole, reasonably satisfactory listening without undue distraction of attention. Foreign noises definitely less prominent than the music. F (Fair): Foreign noises, taken together, are about as prominent as the music, and there is considerable distraction of attention, and listening requires some effort and concentration; nevertheless, under these conditions, listening should be fairly satisfactory. P (Poor): Foreign noises, collectively, are louder than the recorded music; continuous concentration is required, and there is little satisfaction in listening. Co'umn 4 of the "For Disposition" section shows the method by which each record is to be disposed: "SAL": The record is for sale at the price indicated. "AUC": The record is at auction. The highest bid takes the record. Bid only what the record is worth to you. "TRA": The record is for trade only. If you are not familiar with the wants of the advertiser send for his want list. If you have certain records in which he may be interested, mention these in your letter. The extreme right column in both the "Wanted" and "For Disposition" sections shows the first four letters of the advertiser's name. His address is shown in the adjoining columns of this page.
