Descriptive Details Contents Mendelssohn: Sonata in E major, Op. 6
Schubert: Twenty Dances
Karl Ulrich Schnabel (piano)
Sheffield Labs M-8 — mono LP
Autographed by Karl Ulrich Schnabel (son of Artur Schnabel) Condition On a grading scale where NM is as good as it gets (factory pristine), this LP has full luster and plays stunningly, in NM- condition as played on a sensitive system (top-of-line Basis turntable, Vector arm). When examined directly under a bright light, the LP has several small surface scuffs visible only under this direct light. The autographed album cover is in MN- condition, with scuffs & small corner bumps. Info This is a rare release from the direct-to-disc specialist Sheffield Labs released when the company was called Sheffield Records. Although not direct to disc, this LP, a sonic stunner, has the same perfectionist production values as the later D2D Sheffield's. Recorded in 1967 & released in 1968, Karl Ulrich Schnabel likely gave this signed copy to a couple who were close friends. The touching inscription states, "To Pat & Hugh Reynolds, who heard as very much of my practicing for this record & whom I would like to know its result as well! —Karl Ulrich Schnabel 3/8/1968" LP Grading, Payment & Shipping Terms, Etc. Grading Descriptions Read more regarding the grading used to describe the condition of LPs. Payment Please make payments in U.S. funds. Within the USA, make payment via Cashier's Check, Bank Check, Money Order, or Personal Check. For payments from outside of the USA, Paypal accepted though payment via International Money Order or cash sent via registered mail is preferred. Checks must clear prior to shipping. Paypal not accepted for orders within the USA. Payment Terms Buyer must contact the Seller within 3 days after the auction closes and payment must be received by the Seller within 10 days after the auction closes, or else seller reserves the right to cancel the auction and ebay may file an unpaid bidder action. Acquiring LPs and creating ads takes a lot of time & expense, so please be a responsible bidder. Shipping Records ship in robust mailers designed to transport LPs. Shipment for 1 standard sized LP in the 48 continental states via Media Mail is $4.90, which includes the cost of shipping materials. LPs weighing 180 grams or greater, gatefold covers, box sets, & multiple LPs will likely increase this fee. Shipment via Priority Mail, which some feel incurs less mischief while in transit, is available within the USA as an extra cost option. Payments must clear prior to shipment. Reduce Shipping Costs Will ship multiple auction wins from any current auction in one package whenever possible. If interested in auctions closing on different dates, please email your intent to bid on other auctions prior to the closing date of your initial auction win. Doing so prevents needlessly performing laborious tasks, such as invoicing, required to finalize an auction win. Eliminating these time-intensive tasks enables passing savings on to you. Insurance Purchasing insurance is optional though recommended as the Seller is not responsible should the post office damage or misplace a package. Although the Seller will assist in filing an insurance claim, the Seller cannot provide refunds for lost or damaged shipments as any such occurrence is the fault of the shipper not the Seller. Feedback Policy Our transaction will be a positive experience. Once you're satisfied, please leave feedback. In turn, Seller will leave feedback which will close his responsibilities and our current transaction.
