I've seen the item in question since the seller lives a few blocks from me ( I may have even done the original transfer. It didn't look abused as I remember it, and is probably on the better side of the usual condition in which disks this old are found.

Certainly, the Boston Symphony, it ain't! You have to wonder if it actually sounded a lot better when it was new. Most of the records of that age that I've heard sounded grainy like that one does. Unlike most eBay items; it IS rare! Doug.
