Hi! You're looking at a great overall condition 4 LP Vinyl Record Box Set and FIRST PRESSING which is on the Columbia Masterworks label and a brilliant recording of the "Titan" Symphony No. 1 in D Major, "Tragic" Symphony No. 6 in A Minor, and Symphony No. 9 in D Major composed by GUSTAV MAHLER and performed by conductor LEONARD BERNSTEIN, who leads the New York Philharmonic.  The LP is on the Columbia Masterworks label with the serial number M4X 31427, is a STEREO 1972 4 LP Box Set issue 1st PRESSING and was issued in the United States.
This 4 LP Box Set is in great overall condition and the vinyl on records two, three and four is in NEAR MINT- condition with just a few scattered paper scuffs that should not significantly affect play, and in VG condition on record one due to a mark on the second half of side one which produces some consecutive light pops in the last portion of the first movement and throughout the second movement, and a pressing irregularity of the vinyl on the outer rim which produces some light pops on a small part of the first portion of each side; the outer box is in NEAR MINT- condition with a small split on the lower left corner, very light dings on the tips and just very light shelfwear otherwise but NO other significant flaws--it's NOT a cutout!  The original inner sleeves are also included and include three inner sleeves with notes advertising other Columbia releases and a fourth inner sleeve in plain white, and the ORIGINAL BOOKLET is also included and in superb shape.

Very Good Plus Plus (VG++) A very clean record that has no marks aside from slight scuffs and abrasions caused by removal from a paper inner sleeve or perhaps a few marks on the label caused by a turntable spindle.

Very Good Plus (VG+) A record that has had a number of plays and may have some superficial scuffs, possibly mild to moderate spindle marks and / or possibly hairline scratches on the vinyl, which may produce some intermittent pops and possibly very light background noise.

Very Good (VG) A record that has generally been well cared for, but has seen a fair amount of play, with some scuffing. hairline scratches, spindle marks and / or light scratches.  Should play through well, with the possibility of more pops and more background noise.

Very Good Minus (VG-)  A record with significant scuffs, scratches, and spindle marks that should play through with moderate pops and surface noise, possibly of some duration.

Good (G) A record with will play through, but with significant pops, substantial background noise, and possibly intermittent skipping.
