Description: This comes from a large collection of classical vinyl LP records, stored meticulously in a climate controlled room for 40 years before I purchased them from an estate. As is often the case with collections of this size, most of the records appear to have been rarely played, if ever. This is on the Philips label with Alfred Brendel, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and James Levine. The outer box is in VG+ condition with the exception of writing and a review taped inside the lid. There is minor shelf wear. There are no split corners. The booklet is VG+. The records themselves are NM with the exceptions of side 5 and 7. Side 5 has a few stray marks in one are of the outer 1.5” or so. Side 7 has a V-shaped scratch about 1/4” on each side in the middle of the record side as well as what appears to be a large smudge from a wet hand or something that’s mostly in the dead wax. I would expect the latter to clean up well with a cleaning. A bit on my grading…. I am a collector myself and NM is not a grade I use lightly! In fact, less than 1% of my own (mostly rock/blues/soul, mostly sourced used) collection is NM. If only the genres I collect benefitted from lined sleeves and handling by responsible, sober adults as these classical records have! When removing these records from the sleeves, some of them possibly for the first time ever, at no time did my fingers touch anything other than the spindle hole and the edge of the record. I am confident you will be happy with my grading and if for any reason you are not please contact me before leaving feedback and we will work out a resolution. Smoke free home.
