 'KLEMPERER CONDUCTS WAGNER' 1960 STEREO LP.

THE PHILHARMONIA ORCHESTRA

Conducted by

OTTO KLEMPERER. 

Pressed in Great Britain and released on Columbia SAX 2347.

First pressing on the Turquoise/Silver label.

Play grades as EX-/VG.

On both sides all musical passages play clearly & brightly.

There are no sticks, jumps or skips and no evidence of any groove wear at all. There is a short lived, light static type sound at the start of side 1 that repeats about 5 times. This looks like it is caused by a small group of spot marks near the edge at about.

Side 2 has a 1cm. long scratch in band 1 which causes a quiet, repeating click throughout its length.

There is also a small scratch at the start of band 2 which gives a 'click' that repeats for about 30 seconds and also another just after it which gives a quiet 'click' that repeats for about 60 seconds. 

When tilted under normal lighting side 1 has a short, light surface mark near the end of the side and side 2 has the 2 short & very small visible scratches.

When tilted under halogen lights side 1 has no more marks visible but side 2 does have a few more, including a few that are 3-5 cm in length. 

Front laminated 3-flipback sleeve grades as EX-.

Has a little shelf wear on the bottom edge

Poly-lined 'EMITEX' 'Made in Great Britain' inner sleeve grades as EX.

I combine items to reduce p&p cost so if you purchase more than one item please wait for my invoice before making payment.

Please be aware that all orders totalling over £20 will have to be shipped by signed for/tracked mail, which adds £1 to the price for UK shipping & £4.50 to the price for European & World shipping.

ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK.

I dispatch records in brand new, bought in mailers designed for the process. Before placing in the mailer I take LPs out of the sleeve place both in a polysleeve and between two card stiffeners and if there is a picture sleeve I place the LP in a plain sleeve to prevent knifing of the picture sleeve. [all this costs £0.80/single LP].

I USE RECORD COLLECTOR GRADINGS AND USE A +/- WHERE I FEEL THAT IT'S APPROPRIATE.

(M) MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as sealed or unplayed should be mint.

(EX) EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of being played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging may have slight wear and/or creasing.

(VG) VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

(G) GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

(F) FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

(P) POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

(B) BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
