Description
I am selling some of my collection of classical records most of which are high grade.
This one is Herbert von Karajan conducting the Philharmonia Orchestra in a mixed programme of Strauss,Chabrier, Suppe, Offenbach and other composers. It is a UK first stereo pressing on the EMI Columbia blue and silver label.
The matrix numbers are YAX 657-2 and 658-5. The very early stampers are 1G and 1G
The vinyl is mint or near mint I am sure that it has not been played. The labels are mint. The fold-back sleeve is excellent with a lovely laminated front but a slightly grubby rear cover and minor bumps to the corners . The original inner sleeve is excellent, nice, crisp and white with just a little creasing.
As far as the vinyl and labels are concerned this is just about the best copy you will find: but if you don't agree you may return it for a full refund.
Look out for more rare recordings in high grade which I am disposing of. All are part of a personal collection of 1950s,1960s and early 1970s Classical LPs ; most are in excellent or better condition; including several rarities and first pressings, mainly Decca SXLs, EMI ASDs, Angel, and Mercury Living Presence Stereo: De Vito, Kertesz, Oistrakh, Beecham etc. I am happy to receive wants lists if there is something you are particularly looking for.
I will be listing numbers of them individually throughout the next two weeks or so. So please review my other listings from time to time. They must go and are sold without reserve.
I grade according to Record Collector Magazine standards and I think you will like these recordings as much as I do; but if you don't, and you are not completely satisfied then everything is returnable.
I will give postal discounts for multiple purchases and I am happy to ship anywhere in the world. If you are bidding from outside UK European Postage is £5; and America, China, Japan & the Far East is £8.
Everything will be send in professional mailers with stiffeners.
