Rossini - The Barber Of Seville

Alceo Galliera/ The Philharmonia Orchestra & Chorus/ Tito Gobbi; Maria Callas etc..

(Clumbia 2266-68 UK 3 LP Box Set 1958)

 

This is a UK original Stereo 3 LP Box Set pressing. It has an outer box which has a laminated front picture. This has a gold circular "Stereophonic" sticker on the front also. It comes with some period polythene inner sleeves. There is no libretto or insert. 

The records have "blue and silver" Columbia labels. For some reason the original owner has attached three small rectangular felt pads to each label. These could possibly be removed if necessary but may, I guess, tear the label. They have 1st press YAX 63-9, YAX 64-7, YAX 65-7, YAX 66-6, YAX 67-4 and YAX 68-6 matrix numbers.

 

Box: There is a small seam split at the top and bottom corner of the front opening part of the box. There are a couple of areas of moderate rubbing wear to one edge on the back box. and a small area on one front edge, and at the bottom right corner tip. VG condition.
