Jacket Grading:     NM- I am a strict grader and have marked this down from M/NM+ to a NM- due to some small creases and bends on top left corner. I have provided numerous high resolution close-ups of edges, seams and all corners. Colors are deep/rich and show little to no signs of aging. There are no split seams, no writing and no tape. Includes original poly liner and all original inserts *   * including "Complete Numerical Listing of All WESTMINSTER RECORDINGS Up To May 31, 1956"   
Overall:   This is a wonderful recording of my favorite Beethoven Symphony and a relatively rare LP from conductor Hermann Scherchen. The record has never been played and the jacket is in beautiful shape, except for light dent/crease on top left corner. I'm particularly fond of the cover art from Raphael Boguslav who died just a few years ago. This is the only copy of WL 5108 that I have ever come across.

This record comes from my personal library. I am first and foremost a music lover & collector, NOT a dealer or bulk seller. I am auctioning off a few choice pieces as I have run out of storage space. The majority of the items that I sell are duplicate copies looking for a good home. Please enjoy this music with your friends and loved ones!!
