PLEASE HAVE A LOOK AT MY OTHER ITEMS FOR MORE GREAT CLASSICAL! 

ARTIST : Istvan Kertesz conducting the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra 

TITLE: Dvorak 'From The New World' Symphony No.5

LABEL : Decca SXL 2289  Wide Band Grooved ED1 (original recording by label text)

COUNTRY: England

CONDITION : 

Record: both sides EX- (on side 1 a couple of light non sounding marks and a tiny scratch that causes 14 clicks near the end of the side; side 2 has a couple of tiny digs that cause around 10 clicks in total). Aside from these very small blemishes the vinyl is in superb condition, the record retains a nice glossy shine, clearly this record has seen little play

Labels: EX+ 

Sleeve: Original first pressing laminated gatefold sleeve is in EX condition. Some light age toning and some very small light creasing, inside the gatefold looks great. Like many early SXL releases this sleeve is made of very thin card and is prone to creasing, i think this copy is an excellent example, please zoom over the photos to see in detail. Original Decca poly-lined inner sleeve

COMMENTS: Legendary Decca recording! Early matrix numbers ZAL-5172-2E  and ZAL-5173-1E.   This is still a fantastic copy despite the small number of clicks. Record would benefit from a professional clean before playing. 

Postage for this item includes insurance

As of the 4th September 2013 Ebay has decided it will take a 10% cut of all post and packaging costs!!!!! ..... this will affect both domestic and international postage rates, sorry, but this is beyond my control. I do not make a profit on postage. here is an example of how i work out my postage: to post a record to the UK royal mail 2nd class is £2.60, record mailers and cardboard stiffeners around 90p, which total £3.50. i now need to receive £3.90 (Ebay now take 10% of this is £3.90 which is 39p,     £3.90 -39p = £3.51 which is what i need to receive for the cost of the postage). I understand this makes postage more expensive, but i can't do anything about it. If some business sellers can post records for cheaper than this they are doing so at a loss, i unfortunately cannot do this, hopefully this is understandable, thanks.
