This item is not for sale. Gripsweat is an archive of past sales and auctions, none of the items are available for purchase.


These records are from my collection of more than 20,000 classical music LPs, acquired since the early 1960s. All the records have been catalogued, carefully graded and stored on shelves. I am very fussy about condition and my records are either Ex+ or NM and come with a full guarantee.

 

All 8 records are original 'Alle Hersteller' pressings with red logos and  tulip rims.

Although these LPs are 50 years old, the vinyl is NM.

The sleeves are generally EX+, spines are legible throughout, except for 138 808, which is partly legible.
