Bela Bartok Mikrokozmosz/Mikrokosmos I-VI Ditta Pasztory 3LP Gatefold HLPX-1033

$

47

Direct from the estate of Peter Bartok, son of Bela Bartok, this album features very clean discs. This is an oddball from the normal release, as it is often seen in a box set format. This is instead housed in a 3LP gatefold. It's hard to tell the original recording date. Bela married Ditta in 1923, but he passed away in 1945. I assume this was recorded somewhere in that windows and later transferred to 33RPM by Peter and his associates at Hungaroton/Qualiton in the late 50s or early 60s. This label variation was in use from 1956-1963 before they dropped the white spots in the LP graphic near the top of the label.

The pocket on the inner side of the sleeve would normally hold the small pamphlet that came with it, but I cannot find it amongst all of his music collection.
Vinyls are NM or NM- only because of some loose paper and dust flecks from static. Peter inserted the vinyls in these nice poly liners to keep them protected.

In picture #4, you can see that the front cover had begun to separate from the binding. I fixed this with some very strong wood/paper glue. I'll add a picture of the fix in the coming days.
Sleeve is otherwise high VG to VG+. While there are no splits, the top right corner has a corner bump and crease that cause it to have a slight curvature near that corner. No print on the spine to identify the album without sliding it out of the shelf.

We have been given the great privilege of acquiring the musical collection of Peter Bartok, son of famed composer Bela Bartok. We will slowly be selling several hundred titles, test pressings, and acetates from the Bartok estate over the coming months. Be sure to look over our other account, vinylicioustreasures, to see the catalog of new, unplayed old stock LPs.
