Hi! You're looking at an outstanding condition issue of a RARE and hard to find FIRST PRESSING London ffrr (Full Frequency Stereophonic Sound) issue with the "Blueback" design and the serial number CS-6009 and a classic recording of the COMPLETE Ballet "Petrushka" composed by IGOR STRAVINSKY and performed by conductor ERNEST ANSERMET and L'ORCHESTRE DE LA SUISSE ROMANDE. The LP is a 1st PRESSING on the London ffrrr label with a "Blueback" cover, is a STEREO recording with the serial number CS 6009 and was made in the United States in 1959.
This record is in outstanding condition and the vinyl is in VG++ condition and plays beautifully, with a a few slight hairline marks and some light paper scuffs that do not significantly affect play except for a couple of light and widely scattered tics and pops in a couple of places and slight background noise in a couple of the quietest passages (THIS LP HAS BEEN SOUND GRADED IN ITS ENTIRETY and sounds fantastic!); the cover is in beautiful NEAR MINT condition with a slight crease on the upper center of the front surface, verys light dings on the tips and just slight shelfwear but NO other significant flaws--it's NOT a cutout! The original cellophane inner sleeve is also included.
Vinyl Grading Standards (unless otherwise indicated, LPs are visually graded)
Mint (or M) – Sealed and effectively perfect with no signs of wear or ever having been played.
Near Mint -- A record with only the slightest evidence of ever having been handled.
Very Good Plus Plus (VG++) A very clean record that has no marks aside from slight scuffs and abrasions caused by removal from a paper inner sleeve or perhaps a few marks on the label caused by a turntable spindle.
Very Good Plus (VG+) A record that has had a number of plays and may have some superficial scuffs, possibly mild to moderate spindle marks and / or possibly hairline scratches on the vinyl, which may produce some intermittent pops and possibly very light background noise.
Very Good (VG) A record that has generally been well cared for, but has seen a fair amount of play, with some scuffing. hairline scratches, spindle marks and / or light scratches. Should play through well, with the possibility of more pops and more background noise.
Very Good Minus (VG-) A record with significant scuffs, scratches, and spindle marks that should play through with moderate pops and surface noise, possibly of some duration.
Good (G) A record with will play through, but with significant pops, substantial background noise, and possibly intermittent skipping.
Poor (P) A record with MAJOR issues that will interfere with play, and will possibly be unplayable in part due to damage (I'll only offer an LP in this condition if it's an extreme rarity and / or for cover art display purposes).
