Description

ARTIST: MISCHA ELMAN (VIOLIN) , JOSEPH SEIGER (PIANO).               

TITLE:  ELMAN ENCORES.

FORMAT:  12" VINYL LP .

LABEL: DECCA   RECORDS             CAT NO.: LXT 5304

COUNTRY OF ORIGIN;  UK.

Matrix Numbers:  ARL-3421-1A  /  ARL-3422-1A

Playback: There is crackling at the start of the record and on visual inspection it shows dirt tight within the grooves. I would expect a professional record cleaning machine would be able to remove the dirt. Other than this the sound is excellent. The record has a lovely glossy sheen and only shows some light faint scuffs in places. Due to the dirt in the grooves I'm going to have to grade the LP down from EX- to Very Good- to be on the safe side. As said once you have a prof. clean it should sound stunning and clear and Grade EX

VINYL CONDITION : Very Good-, see above description

SLEEVE CONDITION: VERY GOOD, SOME LIFTING OF LAMINATE  AND MILD SIGNS OF USE


Grading System: In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition of second-hand records, I have added a (+) or (-) to my gradings where applicable.
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.  EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.  VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc. FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing. BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
