Beethoven. Pastoral. Cluytens. Vinyl ALP 1408. Factory Sample. The vinyl at first glance looks excellent but under good light some lines and marks were noticed prompting a test play! This revealed some predictable background crackle but overall it played very nicely with no "pops" or jumps. The sleeve is in great shape apart from a bit of age grubbiness/foxing on the reverse - this does not detract too much - and I hate foxing! The sleeve is of a thin design and the spine has taken a bit of battering but the wording is fine. The inner is original, flat and intact. The Factory Sample sticker is genuine. I will post in poly protective sleeve and record mailer using Royal Mail. If buying from mainland Europe please ask for an invoice so that I can reduce the International postage cost. For other countries I am afraid that tracked postage costs have increased.


PLEASE NOTE THAT MANY OF THE RECORDS THAT I SELL ARE FACTORY SAMPLES WHICH ORIGINATE FROM MY DAD'S DAYS WITH EMI. PLEASE REMEMBER THAT FACTORY SAMPLES BY THEIR NATURE MAY NOT BE FLAWLESS! I USUALLY GRADE RECORDS VISUALLY AND  TRY MY BEST TO BE  HONEST ABOUT WHAT I OBSERVE.  HOWEVER AN APPARENTLY NEAR MINT RECORD CAN HAVE INVISIBLE PRESSING FAULTS THAT CAUSE "POP" NOISES. I AM VERY HAPPY TO TEST PLAY ANYTHING IF REQUESTED TO.
