Description
Vinyl does not looks heavily played at all with handful of light spindle trails. Very clean and glossy with one or two superficial light scuffs seen under strong light. Cover has some wear and tear in the corners and bit of sellotape residue on the flip back but nothing severe and commensurate with age.
Vinyl is graded as EX and the cover as VG+. Please check the pics and feel free to ask for any further information.
Peter Maag/ London Symphony Orchestra
Mendelssohn: A Midsummer Night's Dream
(Decca SXL 2060 UK LP 1958)
This is an original ED1 UK Stereo pressing in very nice overall condition! It has a fully laminated flipback sleeve which has an extremely thin spine. The "spine" text is on the rear sleeve next to the spine. There is a blue border around the text on the rear sleeve. Only the very earliest UK pressings have this blue border. The rear of the sleeve has a printing date on the bottom flipback (G.P. 12.58). This means that the sleeve was printed in December 1958.
It comes with its original polythene-lined generic "FFSS" Stereophonic company inner sleeve. The record is pressed on thick vinyl & has black & silver ED1 "wide band" Decca labels which are grooved also. They have the "Original Recordings By.." text on them. It has 1st press ZAL-3559-2K and ZAL-3560-1E matrix numbers.
This is a genuine UK original ED1 pressing. It has a "blue border" sleeve. This also has a 1958 printing date.
