This is an out of print Classic Records 180 gram reissue of Bartok - Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta/Hungarian Sketches RCA LSC-2374, with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Fritz Reiner.


I purchased this disc new sometime between 1995 and 2002.  I didn't open it until 2012, when I played it once on a Well Tempered Classic with an Ortofon HMC 30 moving coil cartridge (see photo), and recorded it to DSD.  Before play, the disc was cleaned and vacuumed with a VPI HW-17 record cleaning machine (see photo). 


Both the disc and the jacket were always protected with an outer poly sleeve and an inner rice paper sleeve.  


The jacket looks nearly new.  There are a 3 corner dents and a couple of minor creases (see photos).


This is a great recording and is on Harry Pearson's Super Disc list.  


Remastered by the renowned Bernie Grundman.


This is a 180 gram reissue, not the 200 gram reissues that audiophiles often complain about.


I sell only from my personal collection.  99% of what I sell was purchased new and played only a few times or less on high end equipment.  My discs are extremely well cared for, and unless noted otherwise, discs have no scratches or any user damage.  Discs and covers were always protected in plastic outer and rice paper inner sleeves, so you're getting a mint LP (no exaggeration) in terms of play and cosmetics.  Analog veterans know this, but recent vinyl converts should be reminded that even brand new LPs have tics and pops, so don't expect any LP to be perfectly silent.
