Description

This great item is the vintage classical vinyl four-record box set 'Mozart: Don Giovanni' performed by Lisa della Casa, Cesare Siepi, Hilde Gueden and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Josef Krips. It was released on the Decca label with the catalogue number SXL 2117-20 and with the sought-after 'Wide Band' label it is an original pressing dating from the Fifties. It is in, as can be seen, fantastic condition, looking as if carefully and rarely played and well stored. For a detailed description:

• Box - very slight wear. Very slightly dirty.
  
• Records - visually inspected under a bright light I can see nothing - scratches or marks - that would affect the playing or sound quality.
  
• Insert - bright, clean and crisp. Looks unread.
  

Overall, this is a fifty year-old record in exceptional condition - other than some slight wear to the box, this item must look pretty much as it did when it left the shop over fifty years ago. I have included pictures of only one side of a single record as exemplars - all the other records are in as good condition and more pictures of immaculate shiny black vinyl playing surfaces would be very dull but I would be happy tp provide them for anyone who wants them. As can be seen from my feedback - a rating of 4.9 on 'Item Description' - I take time to carefully and accurately describe items, listing any possible faults and generally get it right. While I cannot possibly be an expert on all the items I sell, I have thirty-five years experience buying and selling vinyl records so it's an area about which I have some knowledge - trust the description and buy with confidence. I have also, of course, considerable experience of packing records carefully and securely for sending worldwide - it will arrive in the same great condition in which it leaves me.

In fantastic condition, and with the superior sound quality of a sturdy, deeply-cut vintage pressing, this rare item would be a splendid addition to any collection of vintage classical records.
