DGG stereo "Alle Hersteller" 1965 Tulip Fournier Cello Concertos

soloist Pierre Fournier

SOUND SAMPLE STARTED AS YOU OPENED THE PAGE SO TURN UP THE VOLUME AND HAVE A READ

German Pressing from Deutsche Grammophon (DGG), SLPM 138 986, Tulips 'Alle Hersteller'  pressing, only one I've ever seen in Australia in the thousands of records I have inspected. tHIS IS NOT A RED LOGO, THE PHOTO IS OF THE ORIGINAL Factory bag still included, in red it says "Direct Import, Factory Sealed"  Interestingly I can find no reference to their ever being a red logo cover edition, so this may well be the first edition. My reasoning is one track on this was recorded in April 1965, the jacket is dated july 1965, and consensus seems to think red logo jackets ceased early 1965, so me thinks this is as early as it gets. Anyone want to clarify that I will update to bottom of listing via questions if a bid has been placed.

(Factory import BAG NOW OPENED OF COURSE)

Without having to read my more elaborate report,

Near Mint MINUS LP /

EXCELLENT  jacket (corner bends)

USA buyers, due to recently enforced air security measures, please note if this is delivered to USA (or Territories) there is now a 9AUD  handling surcharge PLUS the normal post charge (x ray search) so that is why postage to USA destinations is so expensive in the postage Tab!!!! MORE DETAIL
Visually, STUNNINGLY clean,  no sound 'tics' during test play. Other than that, not even many paper hairlines in sunlight!! 

Fully test played, very quiet no sign of wear damage in replay,)   Stunning  recording!! This will be relatively cheaper post, if bulked up with some other LP's you might win this evening (Closing time tuesday West Australia )

EXCELLENT jacket. 

LP test played after wet wash bath

Other than you venture into strong sunlight, and then you have to look REALLY hard to find the finest paper scuff, and no damage or yellowing to cover except small lines or warps visible near spline and edges/ corners has small bends near opening edge.

LP Condition

(see photo's) Near Mint MINUS after test play ,I am listening to it to test play as I write this listing.  Only a few very light NON sounding paperscuffs in sunlight only, and beautiful, like new gloss on the vinyl. 

NO rotational spindle marks on both sides label.

Record will be mailed outside sleeve to minimise seam splits, but my packing negates that problem anyway.  

Inner sleeve is good only,  as it has a tear from the centre cut out hole for 6cm on the printed side.

WAX CODES

LP COVER

(see photo's) rated 'EXCELLENT'.

Cover shows  NO ring wear, NO bottom edge wear, only a few creases in laminate near  opening edge to speak of, AND SOME MINOR CORNER BENDS.all is visible in photo's, take my word for it, for over 40 yrs old it is remarkably well preserved.

 

Won't spend too much time (?) waffling  so any specific questions please email me.

In other words, buyers asking me to understate the customs declaration on this item need not bid, as I flatly refuse under international law to do so.  (Last Buyer who did that gave neg feedback (it was retracted obviously) as they thought it was my fault they had taxes to pay(?????)

RULES FOR BIDDING

DOES ANYBODY READ THIS?? I THINK NOT BASED ON RECENT BIDDING ACTIVITY ON MY ITEMS!! PLEASE READ...

If you have hidden feedback, or

less than 98% positive, or

less than 50 recent visible positives, (that's NEW EBAY registrations with little activity yet, that have proven your good buying habits)  THEN -

I would appreciate email contact first to establish your credentials.  Credentials mean that I need to know you will be paying with VERIFIED PAYPAL account, and I of course will only be mailing to that verified address. DON'T EXPECT TO GET MY PERMISSION IN THE LAST 2 HOURS OF BIDDING, DO IT BEFOREHAND. (Buyers who have had trouble free transactions with me already qualify of course, regardless of the feedback status)

Winning bids unpaid after 7 days will be reported as non paying bidder and item opened to second chance offer.

HAPPY BIDDING, QUESTIONS WELCOME

This listing in Australian dollars because I don't live in US or UK, and if you don't, WHAT A WASTE OF DOUBLE CONVERSIONS THAT WOULD BE!!! Also as the exchange rate is more like R.S. not U.S against our vibrant economy in sunny Australia
