NM+ BRUNO WALTER'S BRUCKNER TREASURY CSO / CAT# D4S 742 COLUMBIA 2 EYE, 4LP BOX US PRESS 1966

1966 Columbia Records / 4LP Box Set / Masterworks 2 Eye Stereo
I removed this set from its original shrink/bag on 5/7/18 to visually inspect LPs through clear liners and to take high-res pics for this listing. See photos of the item before & after unwrapping.
** Records have never been played. Records have never been removed from original inner sleeves. **
A Treasury of His Great Bruckner Performances        BRUNO WALTER conducting the Columbia Symphony Orchestra (CSO)      Symphony No.4 in Eb "The Romantic"    Symphony No.7 in E    Symphony No.9 in D Minor

Record Grading:   All 8 Sides: Mint/SS Records have never been played or removed from original inner sleeves.

Jacket Grading:    NM+ Unboxed for the first time on 5/7/18 for this listing. Box is pristine with deep/rich colors. Edges are straight. Seams are strong. Corners are sharp. Title on spine is clear and legible.  White paper is bright & stark. Black text of the program notes is crisp and sharp.  All original inserts and additional liners are intact and included.    
Overall Grading:   NM+ Nearly perfect in every way. This highly sought-after collection looks brand new. It shows no signs of wear, handling, or aging. If you've been in the market for this set, you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer copy. It goes without saying that the performances are legendary (and of historical significance). Please review the numerous high-resolution, close-up photos of the item that I have included in the listing details.  

 

 

Shipping Policy:
All LPs are secured with bubble-wrap and carefully placed in proper mailers with specialized cardboard inserts for reinforcement. LPs will be shipped in their inner sleeve, stored outside of the record jacket to avoid damage in transit. Box sets are mailed with the LPs remaining inside, after placing thin sheets of packing paper or bubble-wrap inside to further reduce movement of contents.   
I am happy to combine auction items to reduce your shipping costs.  However, if you want multiple items to mailed in one package DO NOT PAY until you are done bidding. 
I mail purchased items very quickly, typically same day, but ONLY to the address specified in the original request. 
** I WILL NEVER SHIP TO A LOCATION OTHER THAN THE ONE LISTED ON THE INVOICE **

Return Policy:
Please read my return policy carefully before bidding. It will minimize surprises and misunderstandings.
1.  My shipping costs are nonrefundable.  Return shipping costs are the buyer’s responsibility. 
2.  My listings include high resolution, close-up photos taken under bright light. Please review them before making bidding decisions. I am happy to send additional photos upon request. 
3.  I sell items that are out of print or considered collectible. Refunds can only be requested if items are not as described. Buyer's remorse is not covered.  
4.  Returns may be requested up to 1 week after item is delivered.  Refunds will be issued only after the returned item is in hand and confirmed to be in the same condition as pictured in the original listing. SEALED ITEMS MUST BE RETURNED SEALED. "NEVER PLAYED" RECORDS MUST BE RETURNED UN-PLAYED. 
5.  Refunds will NOT be given for defects inherent to the pressing methods of the era in which the record was produced. For example, smaller, "budget" labels from the early 1950s usually have some surface noise during quiet passages.  Full refunds WILL be issued if, during the inspection process, I missed scratches or damage that can be seen and felt. 
6.   Instead of making assumptions regarding your preferred record cleaning methods, I will allow you to wash albums purchased from me in your own home and with your own equipment.  This has always been my personal preference, as I have bought records in the past which arrived damaged by harsh chemicals and/or contaminated cloths.  
7. When purchasing "never played" records, you may see remnants from the original packaging process on the LP.  My policy is to let you clean this off with your own equipment. Experienced collectors know that fine cardboard dust or bits of paper from the original sleeve are most reliable evidence that a record has never been played.  Refunds will NOT be given to those claiming LPs were graded incorrectly because of these remnants.  For more information on this topic visit the websites of a trusted RCM manufacturer such as VPI, Record Doctor, Okki Nokki, or Nitty Gritty.

Any item that you purchase from me comes out of my personal library. I am first and foremost a music lover & collector, not a dealer or bulk seller. I am auctioning off a few choice pieces as I have simply run out of storage space. The majority of the items that I sell are duplicate copies looking for a good home and a pair of keen, appreciative ears. Please enjoy this music with family, friends and loved ones!!
