Decca SXL 2240 1E/1E ED1 Wide Band Grooved 'Original Recording By' - Ruggiero Ricci Solo Recital - Prokofiev / Bartok / Hindemith

Cover: EX(-); bumped left lower corner, two 5mm tears opening, few stains rear
Vinyl: EX+/NM(-); hardly played but a very shallow pressing bubble on both sides is causing a few dull thuds. Some visual imprints of inner as with so many early SXL records

Standard Postage:
Less than 2 kg (average up to 6 records): Europe $15; outside Europe $30

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I grade visually and (partly) play grade whenever in doubt. Stereo issues on a Linn LP12 with a Lyra Delos cartridge. Mono issues on a Thorens TD135 with a General Electric VRII cartridge; please be aware that this is a true mono Variable Reluctance cartridge, thus playing with a minimum of groove noise and hardly picking up any imperfections that these older mono records frequently have

As I don't have my own professional cleaning equipment, records are not cleaned. As a keen collector, no doubt you will have your own preferences. In my experience records easily gain a grade with professional cleaning

Payment: worldwide - PayPal

Shipping in new solid custom made LP cardboard

Due to an increasing amount of 'non-delivery' parcels in the past, I have no other option than to send with 'Registered - Track & Trace' services only.  No exceptions anymore unfortunately, unless you will explicitly wave my responsibility regarding non-delivery.  Records over $500 will only be send insured

Finally: in case you don't agree with my ratings or have any other issue with my listing, please contact me and we shall work it out. I will give full refunds (item price + shipping costs), however the shipping costs for sending the item back is for the buyer unless I have made a significant mistake.
