78 RPM album at least 75 years old.  Egon Petri plays "Moonlight Sonata" and Liszt Concert Study in D flat, "Un Sospiro."   Petri was an acclaimed pianist and teacher recorded at the height of his powers.  Shellac discs in good condition for their age.  No damage or scratches observed; however, I no longer have equipment to play them, so cannot verify sound now, but was good when last played.   Album is also very good for age with no damage. Rare historic recording.   A stamp-sized sticker was placed on label on one side of each disc.  My childhood foolishness.  Could probably be carefully removed.   Will be carefully packed.
