Test Pressing / Factory Sample - Columbia 33CX 1513 - 1958 - XAX 1067-4N / XAX1068-2N - Beethoven Sonatas No. 21 & 28 Waldstein - Claudio Arrau.  I have some more 1950s/60s Columbia and Decca titles listed separately and please note that they would all benefit from a professional deep groove clean for background crackle.  They all play all the way through without skipping.  The visual inspection is done in daylight. 

Disc 1 / Side 1:  Glossy vinyl with a visible light hairline / scuff and the odd click. Disc 2 / Side 2:  Glossy vinyl with the odd light click.
