Description

Very nice copy of the original 1955 12” LP issue of the famed Bing Crosby Merry Christmas album on Decca DL-8128. Original version on the Decca star label and with the photo of Bing in his Christmas hat on the back. All subsequent issues had a different back and different labels. These original pressings really have a special look and sound that the later ones are missing. This copy is quite nice, too. The disc does have some superficial scuffing but it plays pretty near flawlessly and just beautifully. Only a tiny bit of very light crackle at the beginning of each side but it disappears as soon as the music starts. After that there isn’t the slightest tiny crackle anywhere. Totally silent even between songs. Absolutely beautiful playing copy. The cover has a seam split 3/4 of the way across the top (see photo) but is otherwise quite nice with only light signs of use and age. Really a nice original copy!
