Description
SXL 2087 - 2090 THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO
LABEL - DECCA
COUNTRY OF MANUFACTURE - UK (EXPORT EDITION)
YEAR OF ISSUE - 1959
LABEL TYPE - WIDE BAND WITH GROOVE JUST INSIDE PERIMETER OF LABEL
MATRIX NUMBERS - 2087 - 4K / 5E 2088 - 4F / 4F 2089 - 4F / 2K 2090 - 3F / 3E
THIS BOX SET IS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION. ALL THE DISCS APPEAR UN-PLAYED. I FOUND ONE SPINDLE MARK ON THE LABEL OF DISC 3, BUT ALL DISCS ARE MINT, ALTHOUGH I'VE GRADED THEM BELOW AS NEAR MINT. THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE AFORE MENTIONED SPINDLE MARK.
THIS SET WAS MANUFACTURED IN THE UK FOR EXPORTATION TO ARGENTINA. THE INNER SLEEVES ARE CONSTRUCTED FROM THE SAME THICK PAPER AND POLYLINED INNERS AS THE EARLY SXL SLEEVES, EXCEPT THAT THE TEXT IS WRITTEN IN SPANISH (AS IS THE LIBRETTO AND THE PASTED SLICK ON THE BOX), AND ARE HAND STAMPED 'A.R' (ARGENTINEAN REPUBLIC). THE DISCS ARE THE EARLY HEAVYWEIGHT ONES WITH THE GROOVE JUST INSIDE THE LABEL PERIMETER.
AS MOST OF YOU WILL KNOW, DECCA WAS A HUGE ORGANISATION THAT EXPORTED RECORDS WORLD WIDE (A LARGE AMOUNT OF SXL'S ISSUED IN THE U.S. ON LONDON ARE U.K PRESSINGS), AND HAD LABELS AND INSERTS CUSTOM PRINTED FOR THE EXPORT MARKET.
THE ONLY STRANGE THING ABOUT THIS SET, WAS IT HAD A SELFRIDGES PRICE STICKER ON THE FRONT OF THE BOX, SO PROBABLY NEVER LEFT THE UK.
