	£		150
	$		199

Rare (in this condition), precious and beautiful...!

Here I have for sale perhaps the best compilation soundtrack albums ever: a treasured collection of 12 of the complete 14* LPs issued by RCA as the Charles Gerhardt recordings from classic Golden Age and Silver Age Hollywood film scores.

(* The two omitted from this sale are the Star Wars and Gone with the Wind rerecordings, which I no longer have)

They are certainly the most widely praised rerecordings in the history of the cinema.

They were produced by George Korngold, son of Erich Wolfgang, between 1973 and 1978.

Each LP has an illustrated 4 page insert with extensive liner notes on the films and recordings. Please see the photos for details - though track lists are given below.
