Decca LXT 2970 Gold - Mischa ELMAN Tchaikovsky VIOLIN Concerto










Description

Decca LXT 2970 Gold - Mischa ELMAN Tchaikovsky VIOLIN Concerto

This is one of a number of vinyl records from the 1950’s & 60’s listed this week which we no longer listen to. Little played, the records are still in very good condition, the covers sometimes less so.

Gradings are based on the “Record Collector Magazine's Guide” set out in the eBay Guides together with notes about condition added. Extracts from the Gramophone Magazine review written at the time of the record’s release are included, with the permission of the publishers, where these are available.

 

RECORD GRADING

EXCELLENT

 

This is an extremely well preserved record. Both surfaces are clean and bright and there are almost no marks to be seen, just one or two very short, hard to see, hairlines one of which does produce a very short run of about 5 light repetitive ticks on side 2.

 

This apart the record does play with surface sound which I feel sure is dust because there is nothing visible to cause it.

 

It is, however, an excellent record both to look at and to listen to.

 

COVER GRADING

GOOD

 

The cover is a disappointment and can only be graded good. Whilst all the information is as it should be it has been damaged at some time and the bottom binding strip taped. The back is soiled and the corners creased and there is some biro writing on the front. It remains perfectly serviceable and provides all the information it did when new. It just doesn’t look as good as I would have liked it to be to compliment the excellence of the record.

 

I have no wish for you to be disappointed by your purchase. If you think the grading/description was unfair or unreasonable when you receive the record, you may return it and you will have a full refund of all that you have paid me.

All I require is that you contact me within 7 days of its receipt to tell me you intend to return it, and that I receive the record in the same condition as it was when it was sent to you.
