ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSINGS UNLESS NOTED!!!

25+ 1950s-1960s CLASSICAL LP LOT FOR SALE Plus One 10" LP and One STEREO Single RARE / L@@K!!

Normally I try to make time in the year to sell clean rare Classical LP's but time is running out and I decided to sell everything I have in one huge mega-LOT!!  I collect mostly RCA VICTOR "Living Stereo" Shaded Dogs, Stereo MERCURY LIVING PRESENCE, Early LONDON ffrr's with the BLUE BACKS, Early 6-EYE COLUMBIA's, Red Stereo DGG's ..... etc.

OVERALL CONSERVATIVE GRADE I WILL GIVE WOULD BE (7+) VG++.  That included covers.  Slightly below an 8 (E+) due to age and minor wear.  Some will range higher and some will range lower.  Please ask any question you may have about any particular item.

These records are NOT trashed!  They just aren't all MINT/Near Mint and I feel an overall LOT is the best way to present them (at this time).

I have not graded them due to time and laziness.  if you want a particular grade on a particular LP, just "Ask The Seller A Question".

LP's may have stickers (Address/Number/Etc..), writing or tears, same with the labels.

THIS LOT WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT BIRTHDAY/CHRISTMAS PRESENT OR STARTER FOR ANY COLLECTOR/BEGINNER!!!!

The photos only show a small percentage of the entire LOT!!  I may even throw more in this LOT if something POPS UP in the next few days!!

ALL LP's ARE ORIGINAL 1st PRESSINGS Unless noted otherwise!!!

If anyone has any questions on a specific LP please contact me!!!

All LP's come with a generic WHITE Inner Dust Jacket unless otherwise noted .....

FOR INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS (Please Read):

The weight of this package is over 18 pounds.  Due to this, I have ti ship it PRIORITY INTERNATIONAL due to the weight.  SO the winner buyer has the right to pick and choose what they desire to have shipped to them.  If you win this LOT every 45 is yours BUT you may wish to only take certain ones.  It's your choice!!!  (Good way to save on shipping if you have some of the listed titles).

And finally, the lot ......
