We also have sales regularly, so check back often.There is always a Sale by TheBay!We purchased a very large classical and jazz album collection from a former DJ for a local Atlanta area radio station back in the 1950s-1970s years ago. 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 Bernstein Conducts Shostakovich Leningrad Symphony No. 7 2 LP box set conducted by Leonard Bernstein, released by Columbia Records in 1962.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 hardly any scratches on all four sides combined, but there are some light marks on the vinyl that we sometimes see on vinyl stored in plastic sleeves. They will almost certainly come off with a proper cleaning, such as an ultrasonic cleaning, but they do not typically affect playback. With the marks on the vinyl, we'd estimate that these albums are in excellent to near mint condition and even better once given a proper cleaning.The labels are exceptionally clean with no spindle marks. The album sleeves are in excellent condition with no seam splits and the albums were stored in clear plastic sleeves, so the paper sleeves were never used.The album box with hinged lid is really clean, especially given its age, and in great condition as well.This album set will weigh close to 2 pounds and will be shipped in a cardboard album box via media mail with the USPS.Thanks for looking and God bless!
