Description

Before bidding, please take the time to read shipping costs. 

Outstanding example of scarce true first pressing of the Knappertsbusch & Vienna Philharmonic Walkure from June 1959, complete in its first issue wallet with all inserts. The records are an incredible top NM, not a mark on them.  The inner bags are NM, the libretto insert is Ex.  The art title plate insert is NM.  The very vulnerable wallet is a little crinkly as usual and has a small split to bottom of spine, see the photo. Very scarce, very desirable.

Check all the pics..  and make the most of the enlargement facility! 

The purge of the collection continues..... a varied batch this week.

Check my other listings, my feedback, and bid with confidence.  Any reserves are realistic.  Good luck!

Regular clients will know that I keep my descriptions brief and to the point.  If you are looking, I figure you will know what you are looking at.  I would not presume to condescend nor would I wish to bore you to death with unnecessary hype.  Used records play-checked on SME 15, SME V with VDH cart and cleaned when necessary on a Loricraft Pro II.

GRADINGS:

MINT (M): Brand new and unplayed. Perfect, no indications of being handled or played. I only use this grading if I know for sure the record has not been played.

NEAR MINT (NM): The record is virtually flawless, clean and shiny.  Very minor, barely visible innerbag wear may be permitted, but no scratches. The disc should play with no audible noise. Jacket is as close to perfect.

EXCELLENT (EX): Record plays near perfectly, but may have minor paper scuffs that do not interfere with the sound quality. There can possibly be a non-sounding mark or two but nothing that affects play. Record is clean and shiny.  Any issues with the jacket will be minor and described.

Because I have never collected records that are a lower grade than EX, you won?t be finding any for sale here.

I DO NOT USE EBAY GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAMME

Recorded Delivery world-wide shipping for security and peace of mind. Discounted postage for multiple purchases.  Shipping is always at cost, including packing materials.

I ensure that my records arrive with you in the same lovely condition they leave me, carefully packed in secure professional wraps with sheet polystyrene and cardboard packing.  Shipping costs reflect packaging.  I do not use bits of old cardboard box or those cheap flimsy envelope style mailers.

Records are always packed out of their jackets. 

I don?t like to say this, but if you cannot pay, please do not bid.
