Bach Suites for Unaccompanied Cello - Janos Starker - Mono OL3-116 3 LP Original

This listing is for the Bach Suites for Unaccompanied Cello by Janos Starker.  This is the original Mercury mono release (OL3-116) on 3 LPs from 1966. We normally only use fixed-price listings, but given the rarity and condition of this item, it seemed appropriate to let the market determine the sale price.  The set has some condition issues.  First and foremost, it was marked as a remainder using a hole punch through the entire box!  There is a close up picture of the front of the box where you can see the hole in Starker's left ear.  This hole continues through the insert and through the labels of each LP.  The box is intact, but does have some light foxing on the inside from age.  The insert (booklet) likewise has some discoloration from age but is present and in one piece.  The original sleeves are included, but the LPs now reside in Mobile Fidelity sleeves.  The records themselves are a little dusty, but could probably be nicely cleaned if you have a proper record cleaner.  We only have a brush and didn't want to make any mistakes with these rare LPs.  Given the dust, there is some noise when the LPs are played.  None of the LPs show any signs of warping.  All six sides have 'RFR-1' in the dead wax.  
Please visit our store for a large selection of LPs and CDs in a range of audiophile formats.  Feel free to ask any questions and we will do our best to answer them.
