So what exactly does "museum quality" mean? To me, it indicates that it is in the best possible condition, N-, if anything. I guess I was wrong. Here is this seller's opinion of what "museum quality" is. 
THIS RARE RECORD LABEL IS WHAT I CALL "MUSEUM QUALITY" WHICH MEANS; IT IS WORTHY OF BEING PART OF A KNOWLEDGEABLE COLLECTOR WHO CAN APPRECIATE IT'S VALUE AS AN EXTREMELY RARE RECORD ; OR CAN BE DISPLAYED FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC TO VIEW BECAUSE OF IT'S RARITY .
Guess that means just about any 78 can be referred to as a museum piece, n'est-ce-pas? 
So, the description of this rare Bluebird release didn't really tell anything about the condition of the record, which sold for $175, only that it is a REAL NICE RECORD IN GREAT SHAPE
Caveat Emptor.
