Here is a hard-to-find, very rare and sought after Japan audiophile pressing UHQR (Ultra High Quality Recording) series from 1982 Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (MFQR 1-507):  "Respighi: Feste Romane (Pines of Rome)" featuring Lorin Maazel conducting The Cleveland Orchestra.  Original Master Recording.  Half Speed Mastered.  Limited Edition (limited to 5,000 editions).  Numbered Edition (Pressing # 3626).  UHQR Certificate of Authenticity.  Specially Plated and Pressed on High Definition Super Vinyl by Victor Company of Japan Ltd. (JVC), Yokohama, Japan in January, 1982.  
The UHQR by Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab weighs more than twice as much as a conventional LP and takes more than ten times longer to press.  As a result, it contains far more high fidelity information within its grooves.  Each UHQR disc is elegantly boxed and protectively packaged.  It is considered to be the most technologically advanced analog record ever conceived.     The disc is well preserved and in very good condition (from visual inspection).  The vinyl has a nice gloss and the LP has seen low play.  The internal UHQR disc cover, sleeve and MFSL gatefold insert are in very good condition.  The external box is in good condition with a seam split and wear on one box corner plus some other random scuffs & marks on the sides & top due to storage.  There is also a 3/4" long, thin split in the center bottom edge of the box's top cover which is not very noticeable.  Please check the photos for more details.  If you receive your item and are not satisfied with its condition, please contact me immediately before submitting feedback.  I will work with you to promptly resolve the situation.
Please note that this boxed LP will be shipping by itself and cannot be combined with other LPs.  Shipped via USPS Media Mail with tracking # to the lower 48 US States only (no international shipments).  Please do not bid if your ship-to address is outside of the US.  Please contact me before bidding if you have negative or less than '5' feedback.  Payment is due within 48 hours of auction's end.  Please e-mail with questions and thank you for viewing.
