Description
I have up for auction a pair of records (One Sided 12" 78) with a plain white label; vinyl material, thus later date. I have acquired a large, very interesting collection of similar items. Someone in the Victor company during the middle or second half of the 1900s pressed a large number of Victor original recordings (some even unpublished); they are not dubs, but first pressings from the Masters; thus as clean as possible. He often wrote the info on the top right of the white sleeves they are in; and sometimes even made copies of labels. This pair is a pressing of a 1928 recording Victor; CVE-41625-1 and CVE-41626-1 by Ponselle, Martinelli and Pinza performing Forza Del Destino-Finale (Io muojo!); Part 1 on the first record, Part 2 on the second record; Both are the Unpublished (Hold) Take 1's; (the Take 2's were used). The records are in excellent condition, of course, no wear and scuffs and scratches are very few (if any), light and surface variety. Surfaces still very shiny and clean. Thin and flexible vinyl type, thus unbreakable. White sleeve also has corresponding number at top right. I have pictures of trail off area on the first record which has the number etched into it. He also included a print out of the would be label giving the information, including the date, artists and take number.
