SYMPHONY NO. 2 IN D MAJOR, OP. 73

TRAGIC OVERTURE, OP. 81

ERNEST ANSERMET CONDUCTING L'ORCHESTRE DE LA SUISSE ROMANDE

DECCA / SXL 6060'' / 1963 STEREO RECORDING WBG FFSS ED1 LABEL 'ORIGINAL RECORDING BY''

DISC CONDITION: EXCELLENT+ VERY NICE DISC WHICH NEEDS LIGHT CLEAN TO REMOVE DUST, NEAR MINT

SLEEVE: EXCELLENT+ SLIGHT DE-LAMINATION ALONG LEFT EDGE / INNER SLEEVE: GOOD+ SOME YELLOWING AND CRUMPLING OF CORNERS

ORIGINAL DECCA POLYVINYL INNER SLEEVE

ALL MY RECORDS ARE FROM THE EXTENSIVE PRIVATE COLLECTION OF A RELATIVE WHO IS AN EX DECCA EMPLOYEE. THEY HAVE BEEN PROFESSIONALLY STORED IN CUSTOM MADE WOODEN STORAGE BOXES AND HAVE ONLY BEEN PLAYED ON A GARRARD 301 DECK WITH DECCA PICKUP AND ARM.

GRADING POLICY:

MINT / EXCELLENT / GOOD WITH A DESCRIPTION OF THE VINYL FIRST, FOLLOWED BY THE COVER, SLEEVE AND ANY LIBRETTO

MINT: APPEARS AS NEW, FLAWLESS. I THINK THAT THIS IS IMPRACTICAL IN THE REAL WORLD FOR RECORDS THAT ARE 45+ YEARS OLD, VERY FEW WILL BE DESCRIBED AS MINT.

EXCELLENT: APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN PLAYED ONLY RARELY, MINOR FLAW(S) AS DESCRIBED. FOR COVERS/SLEEVE ETC MINIMAL YELLOWING COMMENSURATE WITH AGE.

GOOD: CLEAR EVIDENCE OF PLAYING, WITH FLAWS AS DESCRIBED. FOR COVERS/SLEEVE ETC FLAWS AS DESCRIBED.

I WILL NORMALLY SUPPLEMENT WITH A VERBAL DESCRIPTION OF HOW I SEE THE RECORD.

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THIS IS A SUBJECTIVE EXERCISE AND I AM DOING MY BEST TO DESCRIBE THE ITEM HONESTLY AND FAIRLY.

POSTAGE AND PACKAGING COST:

UK RECORDED 1ST CLASS MAIL - £4.00

EUROPE/WORLDWIDE AIRMAIL - NOT AS SHOWN IN P&P SECTION, COST WILL BE ACTUAL AIRMAIL SMALL PACKETS PRICE FOR SPECIFIC LOCATION + £1 FOR PACKING MATERIALS. PLEASE NOTE THESE EARLY DECCA RECORDS ARE QUITE HEAVY, SO PLEASE CONSIDER THE LIKELY COST OF POSTAGE BEFORE BIDDING. THANK YOU.

PLEASE NOTE FURTHER ON POSTAGE: POSTAGE TO EUROPE FOR A SINGLE DISC WOULD BE APPROX £6 AND USA £10. THE AIRMAIL SMALL PACKETS SERVICE LIMITS COMPENSATION FOR LOSS TO £41, SO IF YOU WANTED INSURANCE BEYOND THIS, A DIFFERENT AND MORE EXPENSIVE DELIVERY SERVICE WOULD BE REQUIRED. THANK YOU.
