UK STEREO PRESSING 1959
FOR AUCTION TODAY I HAVE A SUPERB COPY OF THIS 1959 LP. THIS IS PART OF A NICE SET THAT BELONGED TO AN AUDIOPHILE COLLECTOR. HIS RECORDS HAVE BEEN VERY WELL PRESERVED AND ARE IN OUTSTANDING CONDITION. THERE WILL BE SOME NICE ORCHESTRAL & OPERATIC ITEMS LISTED . AMONG THEM ARE SOME RARE DECCA, HMV AND COLUMBIA FIRST STEREO ISSUES.
IT'S PRESSED ON TYPICALLY HEAVY 60'S VINYL (153g).
MATRIX NO.s : J2RY-7691-1M / J2RY-7692-1M
MOTHERS / STAMPERS : 1BK / 2BK
A DECCA PRESSING WITH SILVER PRINT ON RED GROOVED LABELS. BOTH LABELS ARE VERY CLEAN WITH NO SPINDLE TRAILS AROUND THE CENTRE HOLE. THIS SUGGESTS MINIMAL AND CAREFUL USE.
LABELS GRADED AS NEAR MINT
CLOSE INSPECTION OF THE DISC UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT SHOWS JUST A FEW VERY SMALL WHISPY LINE MARKS. THE DEEP GROOVED PLAYING SURFACES HAVE A LOVELY SHINE THAT IS ONLY FOUND ON EXTREMELY WELL LOOKED AFTER RECORDS. AUDIO IS CRYSTAL CLEAR WITH JUST THE SLIGHTEST CRACKLE AND OCCASIONAL LIGHT POP. EVEN IN THE QUIETER PASSAGES AND BETWEEN TRACKS THERE IS LITTLE TO FAULT WITH THE AUDIO.
VISUAL GRADING FOR DISC IS EXCELLENT +
AUDIO GRADING FOR DISC IS EXCELLENT +
THE COVER IS PRINTED BY ST JAMES PRESS . THE LAMINATED FRONT HAS A SINGLE CREASE TOP CENTRE, OTHERWISE IT'S NEAR PERFECT. THE SPINE IS FULLY INTACT WITH ALL TEXT LEGIBLE. THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP WITH NO FEATHERING. TURNING OVER, THE REAR PANEL HAS KEPT MUCH OF IT'S WHITENESS WITH JUST A LITTLE AGE TONING BUT NO MARKS. THERE ARE TWO SHADED AREAS AT THE TOP & BOTTOM WHERE SOME STRIPS OF DRIED TAPE HAVE BEEN REMOVED. THE LOWER FLIPBACK HAS SOME CREASING FROM WHEN IT WAS DETATCHED. IT HAS NOW BEEN PROPERLY FIXED IN PLACE.
COVER GRADED AS VERY GOOD+
THE INNER SLEEVE IS THE ORIGINAL, POLYTHENE LINED, PATENT No. 800513 & MADE IN ENGLAND . THERE ARE PIN HOLES IN THE CORNERS, A FEW CREASES AND SOME AGE TONING.
INNER SLEEVE GRADED AS VERY GOOD+
I GRADE RECORDS CONSERVATIVELY USING MY INTERPRETATION OF THE RARE RECORD COLLECTOR PRICE GUIDE GRADING SYSTEM. I DO MY BEST TO GIVE ACCURATE ASSESSMENTS BUT AS WE ALL KNOW THE GRADING OF USED VINYL IS VERY MUCH A SUBJECTIVE MATTER. I OFFER A NO QUIBBLE FULL REFUND IF THE WINNING BIDDER WISHES TO RETURN THE ITEM. ALL I ASK IS THAT THE ITEM IS RETURNED IN IT'S ORIGINAL PACKAGING IN THE SAME STATE AS IT WAS SENT WITHIN 14 DAYS OF RECEIPT.
POSTAGE WILL BE BY IST CLASS SIGNED FOR DELIVERY TO UK AND INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR WITH INSURANCE FOR OVERSEAS BUYERS. PLEASE DO NOT PAY UNTIL INVOICED. SORRY BUT I NO LONGER POST TO RUSSIA, UKRAINE OR ANY OTHER PARTS OF THE FORMER USSR. APOLOGIES TO THE MANY GENUINE COLLECTORS FROM THESE PLACES BUT THE HASSLE I HAVE HAD FROM PREVIOUS TRANSACTIONS MEANS THAT THE MINORITY HAVE SPOILED IT FOR THE REST.
RECORDS ARE REMOVED FROM THE OUTER SLEEVES , PLACED IN A POLYTHENE PROTECTOR AND POSTED IN A SOLID BOX MAILER. THIS MEANS THE ITEM WILL REACH YOU IN THE BEST POSSIBLE CONDITION.
THANKS FOR READING AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS I WILL DO MY BEST TO ANSWER PROMPTLY.
