ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: One of the holy grails of orchestral classical music! Here is a set of one-sided test pressings for the original 1960 STEREO UK release. No picture sleeves issued, but they do come with their original polylined bags. Both vinyls are near perfect. There are a couple of light marks on disc 1 track 1, & very minor hazing caused by a reaction to the polylined sleeve on the 'dead' (non-music) side. There is also a light mark on the 'dead' (non-music) side of disc 2 & some scratching marks on the dead wax part of the both discs. Nothing affecting the audio grooves
The dead wax matrices read:
DISC 1: ZAL-5172-4E // 14" BACKING PLATE "A"
DISC 2: ZAL-5173-2E
// 14" BACKING PLATE "A"

All items with a single or combined selling price of £30 or over MUST be sent by insured (trackable) shipping, at an added cost of £1.30 (£6 overseas) which will be added to your invoice. This is in accordance with Ebay & PayPal rules & is designed to protect us both.

Occasionally items might cost more to ship than the prices stated, for example heavyweight vinyl / gatefold sleeves & extra solid packaging (recommended for more expensive items), which may make the weight in excess of 500g. PLEASE ALWAYS WAIT FOR YOUR INVOICE! I will give you the choice of shipping costs. Please note that the cheapest shipping option for 12" records will usually only provide you with an envelope mailer & ONE stiffener because any extra packaging would make your parcel exceed 500g & would therefore cost more to ship. Please choose the 2nd (more expensive) option for more expensive items & peace of mind!

All records are shipped with the vinyl separated from any picture sleeves (inner & outer), & placed in a plain sleeve outside the picture sleeve to avoid seam splits during shipping.

Discounted (combined) shipping for multiple wins

All items are usually shipped the next working day after payment is received.

Please note that due to long term illness I am sometimes unable to meet shipping deadlines, therefore please be advised that your order might be delayed due to illness & therefore your patience would be much appreciated, however I will do my best to fulfil all orders as soon as possible.

Your payment is expected within 3 days of auctions end in accordance with ebay rules. Please contact me beforehand if you have any difficulties with this. I am not unreasonable & will do my best to come to an arrangement which suits us both. Due to the large amount of non-paying bidders, unpaid item claims will now be filed automatically & without warning if I do not hear from you within 3 days of auctions end

DISCLAIMER All items are listed to the best of my knowledge & ability, & describe any possible faults. However a fault is only classified as irreparable or irreplaceable damage to the item, from (mis)use whether accidental, intentional, or in the actual manufacturing process. Anything which can be easily (cheaply) replaced or repaired without deterioration to the actual product is not classified as a fault & therefore is probably not mentioned. Examples include easily replaceable items like defaced or damaged plain dust (inner/outer) bags, CD jewel cases, & unglued picture sleeves which have simply come apart due to the glue drying up due to age & can easily be repaired. However in instances like this, I prefer to leave the item as 'authentic', than risk damaging it by attempting to reglue it

Any complaints??? Please contact me BEFORE leaving possible neutral or negative feedback, & I will do my best to resolve your problem!

Thanx for looking!!!

 I have added a mp3 sample taken from the first few minutes of the audio (music) from the opening music on both discs. As you will notice there is some slight background noise noticeable during quieter moments, although the discs are most definitely both in excellent visual conditions, but they are also 56 years old! You may also notice a slight 'hum'. This is NOT from the record, but from my computer
