Multiple Copies Of LP s Same Title

Khawk, I believe that there are very few of those 1S/1S stampers around, as they were too dynamic for almost all of the record playing systems of the day. The lowest number I think RCA released in bulk (and which I found) was a 10S/10S, if I recall correctly (and I like the Classic better than that pressing, tubes or no tubes, because RCA must have done some compression of the dynamics to keep the styli of the day in the grooves)--Frap, do you remember? In any event, you have a true rarity, guard it with your life!

My wife wants to be buried with it. I told her to forget it; I was going to sell it to pay for her funeral. My youngest son (24) will probably get it when we are gone. He knows what it is. Funny thing, we went into the city on a Wednesday evening with the kids (it was the only time) to a favorite used record store. We ate next door and then proceeded to find it(Pines)and a first pressing of Merc Bailalaika Favorites ($25.) and two Vics plum labels (new)unopened $12. each and two soria series RCA shaded dogs (both mint) (Heifetz). It was a good night. Whenever we play any of the records my wife just sits there and smiles remembering our 10 year old going through the shaded dogs and pulling out ones he new she was looking for. (He has a degree in Music).

Khawk2 -- WHAT Heifetz? I'm drooling... Not Beethoven Violin Concerto / Brahms ditto -- mint???

Thanks!

I've been out of vinyl collecting for about ten years but still have a MoFi "Abbey Road", some Beatles and Moody Blues british imports, Japanese Phillips classical stuff, etc. Are these worth anything? Thanks, Don

gregm, yes. Pretty remarkable, huh. He is my wife's favorite Violinist and although her favorite is Tchaikovsky (sp) Violin Concerto OP 35 is was not recorded as well as the Brahms or Beethoven.
