A really stunning example of this rare vinyl.

Please note these are vinyl records from my own personal collection. Most of my records have been visually graded and I have tried to be as honest as possible. If for any reason you are not entirely happy with your purchase then please get in touch as I offer a no quibble money back guarantee.

I have 100% positive feedback and I believe this is a good indication of my honesty as a seller and the correct observations of the items I have sold. Also when things have gone wrong my quick desire to put things right.

Although I visually grade my vinyl records I normally tend to undergrade but please cross reference with the photos included.

I have used a Canoscan 8800F flatbed scanner to capture the vinyl labels. I have used the photo setting set at 300dpi. These are raw files which have not been processed, manipulated or enhanced with dust scratch removal or any setting to make the scans look better than what they actually are. As a result with some scans dust particles have been captured either from dust specks on the records or from the glass plate of the scanner.

If for any reason you are not happy with your item please get in touch and I will offer a full refund. Since I have taken great time and care grading, cleaning, photographing, listing, uploading, packaging and posting to the best of my time and ability returning an item will be at your expense which will not be refunded.

 

Below is the grading system I have used-

MINT (M): A perfect record. This record looks like it has just left the manufacturer, with NO flaws what so ever. It looks as though it had never been handled. No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains. No stickers address labels, writing on the covers or labels. No tears or seam splits. No wear to the sleeve or record.

NEAR MINT (NM) : This record appears virtually flawless A very minor scuff and very little else can appear on the vinyl. It should play without any noise over the flaw. The flaw is very hard to see. The sleeve looks as close to perfect with only minor signs of wear and or age. Minor impressions to the sleeve (due to the outer edge of the vinyl resting inside) may be present, however the artwork is be as close to perfect as can be.

EXCELLENT or (EX+): Minor scuffs which are only slightly visible. There may be more than a few scuffs and no scratches (Unless indicated) SLEEVE: Artwork is still as close to perfect as can be. Some impression to the sleeve (minor outer ring wear) Some slight creases to the corners, but not wrinkled and obtrusive to the eye. The corners can show white buffing/wear. No seam splits or writing on the sleeve or taped repairs unless indicated.

VERY GOOD or (VG): The record shows wear, surface scuffs. The vinyl still has a great luster, but the flaws will be noticeable to the naked eye. If the flaws don't cause any surface noise, the vinyl can still make the VG grade but often a VG grade will almost always show some surface noise when they are played. SLEEVE: A virtually clean sleeve, but may have tears, seam splits or creased corners and look worn, used.The artwork looks clean with slightly more aging.

When ever I have used a + symbol I am indicating the grading of the vinyl or sleeve could go in the grading above and sometimes an indication that I have undergraded as mentioned above.

On 12-Oct-11 at 14:34:18 BST, seller added the following information:

I have just found within the vinyl sleeve tucked away in the corner a little pocket book for privileged members which is advertising a 'This Months Selection'. Although the pianist selected is Werner Haas the information regarding Ravel's Piano Concerto for the Left Hand regarding his history and his music is very interesting. I am not sure if this booklet was in the original record but I have scanned and included it in this auction.

On 15-Oct-11 at 22:35:56 BST, seller added the following information:

I have added this extra information as answered in a question below-

I have now listened to both sides using BSR UA15 ULTRA Model 6018b record player using a brand new diamond 513 ST.3 LP stylus. Side one has no jumps, no major scratch sounds, no major clicks, no major pops. Side two is the same but has one small obvious click. Both sides have quiet static crackles in a couple of places. I have not professionally cleaned the record with a professional record cleaner. All I have used is a SUPER EXSTATIC carbon fibre and velvet cleaning pad. When held to a bright light you can see a couple of very fine paper cuts which can not be felt. On the inner dead wax of side one you can see an obvious rub mark. The sleeve is the same as what you see in the photos. This is a very beautiful record to listen to with the equipment I have used. I am sure the winning bidder will be happy. If the winning feels my grading is incorrect, it is not personal and I will offer a full refund with details in the description. Postage is as stated in the postage description but if you want extra insurance etc then the winning bidder will need to message me and cover the extra cost. I hope that helps. I have added this to the description.
