NM ARTHUR RUBINSTEIN MOZART CONCERTO 21 & 23 RCA Living-Stereo SHADED DOG LSC-2634 6S/6S "I"

Original US Press 1962 / RCA Living Stereo / Shaded Dog / "I" Indianapolis Press 6S/6S Stampers
Record has never been played. Unwrapped from original shrink on 5/9/18 to capture photos for this listing.    
Composer: Mozart      Piano Concerto No.21 in C, K.467    Piano Concerto in A, K.488   Piano – Arthur Rubinstein   Conductor – Alfred Wallenstein Orchestra – RCA Victor Symphony Producer – Max Wilcox    Cover/Art Sculpture: Nathan Rappaport Liner Notes – Louis Biancolli

Record Grading:?   Side 1 & 2:  NM+ Record has never been played. Removed from original shrink and inner sleeve for first time on 5/9/18 to visually inspect LP, take photos & capture stamper detail 6S/6S "I".

Jacket Grading:    VG++ LP has been in original factory sealed shrink wrap (see photos before and after unwrapping), I am a strict grader and have marked this down as there are faint signs of ring wear. This is most evident from 11 -2 and 5-6 if looking on a clock face where there is corresponding flaking of laminate along record edge line. There is also upward swooping marks from above the "U" in Rubinstein up to to edge of jacket 3" from top right corner. These are minor/cosmetic but still worth calling out. I have tried to capture this in close-up detail via the high-res photos included with this listing. Other than those minor blemishes to the black laminate coating, the jacket is in beautiful shape. Seams are all strong & straight. Corners are relatively sharp. Colors are deep/rich with no signs of aging or fading. Black text on back is crisp. Title is clear and visible on album spine which shows no signs of handling or wear. As you can see via my reflection in photos, high gloss still remains.    
Overall Grading:   NM Fantastic recording of K.467/468 with cadenza by Rubinstein on K.467. Early Pressing Stampers on "never played" vinyl.  

 

 

Shipping Policy:
All LPs are secured with bubble-wrap and carefully placed in proper mailers with specialized cardboard inserts for reinforcement. LPs will be shipped in their inner sleeve, stored outside of the record jacket to avoid damage in transit. Box sets are mailed with the LPs remaining inside, after placing thin sheets of packing paper or bubble-wrap inside to further reduce movement of contents.   
I am happy to combine auction items to reduce your shipping costs.  However, if you want multiple items to mailed in one package DO NOT PAY until you are done bidding. 
I mail purchased items very quickly, typically same day, but ONLY to the address specified in the original request. 
** I WILL NEVER SHIP TO A LOCATION OTHER THAN THE ONE LISTED ON THE INVOICE **

Return Policy:
Please read my return policy carefully before bidding. It will minimize surprises and misunderstandings.
1.  My shipping costs are nonrefundable.  Return shipping costs are the buyer’s responsibility. 
2.  My listings include high resolution, close-up photos taken under bright light. Please review them before making bidding decisions. I am happy to send additional photos upon request. 
3.  I sell items that are out of print or considered collectible. Refunds can only be requested if items are not as described. Buyer's remorse is not covered.  
4.  Returns may be requested up to 1 week after item is delivered.  Refunds will be issued only after the returned item is in hand and confirmed to be in the same condition as pictured in the original listing. SEALED ITEMS MUST BE RETURNED SEALED. "NEVER PLAYED" RECORDS MUST BE RETURNED UN-PLAYED. 
5.  Refunds will NOT be given for defects inherent to the pressing methods of the era in which the record was produced. For example, smaller, "budget" labels from the early 1950s usually have some surface noise during quiet passages.  Full refunds WILL be issued if, during the inspection process, I missed scratches or damage that can be seen and felt. 
6.   Instead of making assumptions regarding your preferred record cleaning methods, I will allow you to wash albums purchased from me in your own home and with your own equipment.  This has always been my personal preference, as I have bought records in the past which arrived damaged by harsh chemicals and/or contaminated cloths.  
7. When purchasing "never played" records, you may see remnants from the original packaging process on the LP.  My policy is to let you clean this off with your own equipment. Experienced collectors know that fine cardboard dust or bits of paper from the original sleeve are most reliable evidence that a record has never been played.  Refunds will NOT be given to those claiming LPs were graded incorrectly because of these remnants.  For more information on this topic visit the websites of a trusted RCM manufacturer such as VPI, Record Doctor, Okki Nokki, or Nitty Gritty.
