Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB condition LP which is a 1960 FIRST EDITION with early 16S / 9S stampers on the RCA LIVING STEREO label and a brilliant recording of the Piano Concerto in A Minor, Opus 54 composed by ROBERT SCHUMANN and performed by pianist VAN CLIBURN, who is accompanied by conductor FRITZ REINER and The Chicago Symphony Orchestra.  The LP was pressed by RCA Victor in 1960, is a LIVING STEREO issue with the serial number LSC-2455 and 16s / 9s stampers in the dead wax; it was issued in the United States and pressed at the Rockaway, New Jersey pressing plant.
This LP Set is in SUPERB condition and the vinyl is in NEAR MINT condition and should play beautifully, with a couple of slight paper scuffs and a tiny pressing bubble on side two which should not significantly affect play and NO other significant imperfections; the cover with a textured front surface is also in NM condition with a couple of slight dings on the upper edge but NO other significant flaws--it's NOT a cutout!  The ORIGINAL RCA INNER SLEEVE is also included and in outstanding shape, with a single slight center split and no other significant flaws.

Vinyl Grading Standards (unless otherwise indicated, LPs are visually graded)

Mint (or M) – Sealed and effectively perfect with no signs of wear or ever having been played.

Near Mint -- A record with only the slightest evidence of ever having been handled.

Very Good Plus Plus (VG++) A very clean record that has no marks aside from slight scuffs and abrasions caused by removal from a paper inner sleeve or perhaps a few marks on the label caused by a turntable spindle.

Very Good Plus (VG+) A record that has had a number of plays and may have some superficial scuffs, possibly mild to moderate spindle marks and / or possibly hairline scratches on the vinyl, which may produce some intermittent pops and possibly very light background noise.

Very Good (VG) A record that has generally been well cared for, but has seen a fair amount of play, with some scuffing. hairline scratches, spindle marks and / or light scratches.  Should play through well, with the possibility of more pops and more background noise.

Very Good Minus (VG-)  A record with significant scuffs, scratches, and spindle marks that should play through with moderate pops and surface noise, possibly of some duration.

Good (G) A record with will play through, but with significant pops, substantial background noise, and possibly intermittent skipping.

Poor (P) A record with MAJOR issues that will interfere with play, and will possibly be unplayable in part due to damage (I'll only offer an LP in this condition if it's an extreme rarity and / or for cover art display purposes).
