Otto Klemperer / Elisabeth Schwarzkopf - Mahler: Symphony No. 2 2LP
Rare original first UK stereo pressing on Columbia - SAX 2473 & SAX 2474, blue and silver labels, ED1.
Records: EX+/NM (one tiny but slightly fee-able scuff on side 2 of the first LP that looks like it may give a couple of light ticks but I have play-graded both LPs in full and except for a very slight surface noise that should be reduced after cleaning I did not notice any audible defects and visually the LPs appear virtually NM)
Covers: G (the covers have pen writing and are neatly bound together into a gatefold by the previous owner)
