This is a very nice copy of Classic Records 180g pressing of Kiril Kondrashin’s recording of Tchaikovsky’s “Capriccio Italian” and Rimsky-Korsakov’s “Capriccio Espagnole” on four single-sided 45 RPM records with the RCA Victor Symphony Orchestra.  The 45 RPM set is a complete recording LSC-2323.  When I first bought this new, the records were cleaned with a VPI record cleaner and treated with LAST record preservative.  More recently it was recleaned with Audio Intelligent Fluids on a VPI cleaner and on an Audio Desk ultra sonic record cleaner.  It has also been demagnetized with a Furutech DeMag.  It plays with very little surface noise with only a few light ticks here and there on sides 3 and 4.  There are no scratches or scuffs on the records.  I have only played the records a few times on various VPI tables I have owned (HW-19 MKIV, TNT 3.5, and Classic 4) using either Lyra or Benz Mico Ruby cartridges. The sound is naturally open and detailed. The covers are the original jackets that Classic used for their original 180g 33 RPM issue.    There no seam splits.  Only side A of each LP is pressed.  Side B is blank.  The first two records have a regular jacket and the remaining two are in a plain white jacket with a sticker as was originally issued by Classic Records. Multiple records can be combined in an order to save shipping costs.
