EXTREMELRY RARE
EARLY PRODUCTION SAMPLE FROM 1952
RECORD VIRTUALLY MINT - AUDIOPHILE
This extremely rare PRODUCTION SAMPLE as per label pictures is AMONGST THE FIRST PRESSINGS and therefore of the best possible reproduction. Record shows 19 October 1952 near label, and is as shiny as in the first day.
This record was part of my grand father's collection. He was a critic for the french journal Le Monde and also a grand amateur pianist who was part of the jury of the Concours des Grands Amateurs de Piano in the 1990s (this competition still exists).
He used to receive such records from various companies and typicaly heard them once or twice except his favorites.
He also was a close friend of André Charlin and had the very first Charlin Hi-fi, serial #1, which is still there and working.
Record shows no surface marks. It is as shiny as in the first day. I could grade it M-.
The sleeve is also in excellent condition but has minor coloring on the bottom and top edges, one very minor tear on the top (around 4mm), two very small digits on the upper right corner which were used to sort the records in the collection (of 3000+), and some residual price label marks over the DGG logo which can be removed carefuly (I will let the owner do that). What you see over the logo is NO a tear or a paper loss. It is only some residual parts of a label which used to be sticked there.
I would therefore rate the sleeve as EX and the record as M-.
I don't think you will come be such a nice copy so don't let it pass.
