Richard Strauss/Fritz Reiner TILL EULENSPIEGEL - Classic Records FOUR LP, Single Sided 45 RPM Edition, and this set is sealed! One of the earlier 45rpm sets released by Classic, it includes a complete LP cover for each record (Classic subsequently realized they could save money by using only ONE LP cover, with the remaining records stored in generic white cardboard covers). Long out of print, this edition of RCA LSC2077 has the kinds of explosive dynamics and timbral accuracy you'd expect from an audiophile classic. Now's your chance to get this out of print collectible at a fair market price!
CONDITION: The 4LP set comes as four individually sealed records. Generally speaking, each LP cover has minor flaws...either small bumps or areas where the perforated strip of the outer wrap has separated to some degree.  These flaws are as follows:
Record 1 (Picture 13) - A tiny bump/wear to the lower right hand corner, and the perforated strip of the outer wrap has separated by approximately 1/2 inch.
Record 2 (Picture 14 and 15) - The perforated strip of the outer wrap has separated by approximately 1 1/2 inches and the corner has a bit of wear. Record 2 also has a bump to the upper right hand corner. Record 3 (Picture 16) - A small bump to the upper left corner (more clearly visible from the rear). Record 4 (Pictures 17 and 18) - The perforated strip of the outer wrap has separated by approximately 5 inches. The upper left rear corner also has a tiny bump (more clearly visible from the rear). 

ABOUT SHIPPING AND HANDLING: Please note there is a $5 fee included in Ebay's estimate of Media Mail shipping costs. I believe the best way to ship an LP includes a 13"x14"x3" "pizza" style box, 12"x12" cardboard flats, outer shopping bag, and bubble wrap. The shipping boxes alone cost me over $3 each, and the average total cost of shipping materials is around $4.72, so this is NOT a money-maker for me. However, it does ensure, consistently, that these high value LPs arrive safely. Please check my feedback and I think you'll see that buyers appreciate the care with which these precious artifacts are handled.

COMBINED SHIPPING: I am more than happy to combine shipping. Ebay buyers pay the actual postage costs. If a single LP is purchased, the buyer pays actual postage and $5 for shipping materials. If two LPs are purchased, the buyer pays actual postage and $5 for shipping materials. If three or more LPs are purchased, the buyer pays actual postage and $0 for shipping materials (I will absorb the cost of materials). As the final amount can only be calculated after auctions have ended, I will issue the appropriate refund on the day the LPs are shipped. 

About Me: I'm a long time Ebay buyer intent on selling a significant portion of my LP collection over the next year or two (or three!). I believe in the auction process, so I'm NOT going to list records at absurdly high prices, and I look forward to getting rare, out of print records into the hands of music lovers, record collectors and audiophiles (I consider myself all of the above). All LPS stored in a smoke-free, climate controlled environment. 

Please check my feedback and BID WITH CONFIDENCE. Also, please take a look at other items I'm listing (new items will be listed on Sunday and Wednesday nights), and good luck! 

PayPal Payments Only. Payment required within 3 days after the end of auction. All records will ship USPS Media Mail.
