Elgar/Bloch/Pierre Fournier/Wallenstein Cello LP Deutsche Grammophon PROMO RUBY Elgar: Cello Concerto in E Minor Bloch: Schelomo Pierre, Cello Berlin Philharmonic, Alfred Wallenstein
From the Victor Ruby Collection HISTORY: This LP came out of a large collection owned by Dr. and Mrs. Victor Ruby in Atlantic City, NJ.  During the 1950’s, 60’s and 70’s, Victor had a weekly radio show where he played classical recordings of interest and often interviewed an artist, conductor or composer.  Many artists, including Michael Rabin, Ida Haendel, Artur Rubinstein, among other, stayed at the Ruby House a block from the boardwalk and Atlantic Ocean in Atlantic City, NJ.  Frequently, the artist would give the Rubys a memento – often a signed photo or LP to commemorate the occasion. The timing notes on the back of the LP jacket were made for easy reference so this record could be played on air. Often records were only played once or twice as the Rubys preferred to record music onto tape and to use the tape for playback, rather than wear down the LPs. Here is a unique chance to own a record from classical music history!

GRADING
(most records are not play-graded, but if so indicated above, have been graded by a sampling of the beginning of both sides of the record)

Still Sealed/New: Never opened...still in original shrinkwrap and brand new....any tears in the shrinkwrap will be noted in description.

 
NM : Played once or twice, no flaws, but a remote ever-so-slight amount of that shiny luster may be gone.  Jacket will be virtually flawless, slightest signs of wear, maybe one bumped corner, or a hint of edge wear.  Shrinkwrap, if still on, may have some stickers on it or minor tearing.

 
VG++: (eBay equivalent: EX) Record may have some marks (very, very light scratching or some light sleeve scuffing) that may sound briefly in a quieter passage.   The jacket may have the very lightest signs of ring wear, some light corner or edge wear, maybe an old price sticker or two, that should peel off with the proper guidance.

 
VG+: Record will have some light marks (light scratches and light sleeve scuffs), and it might make an occasional pop or crackle in parts, but will not even come close to overwhelming the listening experience.  Still a very desirable grade.. As for the jacket, it will start to show more signs of wear than a VG++ jacket, the ring wear may be slightly  more evident, the edge wear or corner wear may be more defined as well.

 
VG: Record may have several scratches and scuffs, though aside from some popping and crackling, will still be an enjoyable listen. No skips here. The jacket will have far more wear than the previous grades, such as:  edge wear to the point of some seam splitting(the kind that can be repaired with tape or other means), ring wear(not terrible, but still distracting from the image), edge and corner wear, minor writing or a few stickers, or other similar defects.

 
VG- : Not terrible, usually represents 1 or 2 "ugly" marks or scratches, might be a little sketchy in a few spots, other than that would fair as a VG record.  The jacket will show significant wear - ring wear, seam splits(still should be able to be taped up for repair), some writing and/or stickers, edge and corner wear, or other similar defects.

 
Good/Fair/Poor: Filler only, not recommended for listening.
