We bought the collection for the jazz albums, but never got around to listing the classical albums. Almost every album is a radio station promo album and the are all in exceptional condition with jet black vinyl and look like they could've been pressed yesterday. We've picked up several other classical album collections along the way as well and we will be listing some individually and some in lots. It will take us a while to list them all given that we have about 2,000 of them. As with everything we sell, we offer combined shipping and only charge whatever the quoted rate is based on the total weight for media mail. If classical vinyl is your thing, feel free to add us to your favorite sellers list and check out our inventory as we add more as often as time permits.Now onto the item for sale.For sale is a Radio Station Promo copy of Verdi: Requiem 2 LP box set with libretto released by Columbia in 1964.As you know, promotional releases of albums were among the earliest albums pressed and tend to have great sound quality as a result and are far more rare than the official releases.PLEASE NOTE: We do not play test albums, as that would take us a lifetime to do for thousands of albums. We give a visual description and estimated grade of the vinyl. Please see the pictures above for an idea of the condition of the vinyl, labels, sleeves and album cover or box, if a box set. If there are any condition issues, such as scratches, seam splits or other issues, we will indicate that in the description.As you can see, these albums all have jet black vinyl and are very clean. There are only a handful of light scratches on all four sides of vinyl combined with most being on side four. However, there are several small spots and prints on the albums that we sometimes see on vinyl. These will typically come off with a proper cleaning, such as an ultrasonic cleaning. However, there are plenty of sites and videos online on how to proper clean spots off of albums without one. With the number of marks on the vinyl, we'd estimate that these albums are in very good condition, but could use a proper cleaning and will be in much better condition once properly cleaned.The labels are very clean as you can see.The libretto is in excellent condition and what was printed on the back of the box for the regular release is printed on a piece of paper that is folded in quarters. It is in like new condition. The album sleeves are in excellent condition with no seam splits.The album box is in great condition as well with some minor wear expected on a 60 year old box. The promo stickers on the back were only glued on by the factory in the centers, so the sides are not glue down. The next owner can do so easily if desired.This album set will weigh about 2 pounds and will be shipped in a cardboard album box via media mail with the USPS.Thanks for looking and God bless!
