Background -

This mono LP features Maria Callas and Beniamino Gigli performing at a San Remo Concert on December 27, 1954. This is a private pressed LP with superb performances! The LP was made in the USA, issued in the 1950s (although we can't say for certain as there is no date or place of manufacturing indicated on the jacket or the LP). The vinyl is in very good condition, not perfect, as there are some light marks (typically spider marks), which may sound on some audio systems (see below for details).

    CONDITION Details:

    The LP jacket is in good condition - not perfect. The jacket has NO seam splits but does have some damage evident on the front and back with some color foxing. The corners and seams show shelf wear due to the age of the jacket (see pictures with this listing as they are of the actual item). 

    The LP is in very good condition! There are some light marks on the vinyl, most of which are spider marks caused by sliding the LP in and out of the outer jacket. Some of these marks may sound on some audio systems as it depends on the sensitivity of your gear. The LP retains some of the original gloss and sheen! The record was obviously well taken care of! There are NO serious spindle marks on the record labels. That said, acquiring a vintage LP like this is for the performance and rarity of the LP, not necessarily for the sound quality.

    A Short Note About LP GRADING -

    • Mint = Only used for sealed items.
    • Near Mint = Virtually flawless in every way.
    • Near Mint Minus = Item has some minor imperfections, some audible.
    • Excellent = Item obviously played and enjoyed with some noise.
    • Very Good Plus = Many more imperfections which are noticeable and obtrusive.

    For best results, always thoroughly clean your LPs before playing them.

    LPs can be audiophile quality pressings (any collector of fine MFSL, half speeds, direct to discs, Japanese/UK pressings etc., can attest to the difference a quality pressing can make to an audio system).

    Don't let this rarity slip by!!!
