Auction Catalog #108
[Closing March 2nd, 2009]
Dear Fellow Record Collectors -
WELCOME TO THE ONLINE VERSION
OF POLYPHONY’S AUCTION CATALOG #108!
All items are offered at auction; the minimum acceptable bid for each is shown at the end
of its listing. The deadline for receipt of bids is Monday, March 2nd,2009.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR ONLINE: The internet version is essentially the same as
the print version which is sent worldwide except that no bidsheet is provided, since all you really
need to do is send me an e-mail with careful notation of your bids and the lot numbers of the
items in which you are interested. A brief description of the item helps in case of mis-readings
of lot numbers. If you are a new bidder and I do not have your physical address, obviously I will
need it. And if you wish to authorize me to charge your winnings to a Visa, Mastercard or
American Express card which I do not already have on file, I do not suggest that you send this
information via e-mail since it is not very secure. You are welcome to quote an account number
for me via the phone/FAX number or via the physical address shown above – or you may wait
for me to send you a copy of your invoice and quote the account number by return mail. If you
have questions, by all means e-mail me at the address above! SEE PAGE 5 FOR TABLE OF
CONTENTS, PAGE 4 FOR ABBREVIATIONS, PAGE 3 FOR CONDITION GRADING.
For those of you receiving one of my catalogs for the first time, here are a few comments about
the contents and their arrangement. Headers at the start of each section and page let you know
what is there. A listing is mono unless an asterisk or plus-sign appears at the start of the entry to
indicate either true stereo (*) or electronic stereo (+). Listings are categorized according to what I
judge is the primary feature of interest of a given item. Unusual works and those with many
artists (i.e. opera) are listed alphabetically by composer in repertoire sections. Familiar
repertoire is usually listed by performer in an artist section. There are also sections (mostly of
audiophile interest) where material is listed by particular labels. I suggest browsing all sections!
I do some cross-referencing of artists, but you can use your computer to do any searches you
like! If you need more information, just contact me by letter, FAX, or E-mail.
All items are offered at auction; the minimum bid for each is shown at the end of its listing.
Deadline for receipt of bids is Monday, March 2nd, 2009 (actually 9:00 a.m. CDT Tuesday will
still work).
Auction Procedures
First of all, relax! Because this is an auction rather than a fixed-price catalog, there is no need to
rush to get ahead of other collectors. You should receive this catalog with at least a week to
browse before having to send bids. If you did not receive your catalog in a timely manner, let
me know so that I can try to remedy the problem in the future.
Bids must be received by Monday, January 5th. Polyphony's FAX number is: 847-831-5577
(in case of any problems with the regular FAX number, use 847-831-4409). You may send E-
mail to POLYPHONY2@AOL.COM (note the 2 in that address!) In case of ties, the earliest bid
will be the winner. Send no money until you are notified of your winning bids (invoices are
sent within a few days of the close, and all bidders are notified - even those with no winnings).
Winning bidders must send payment in full or deposit (see below) within 4 weeks. Orders paid
by money order (or personal check from established customers) will be shipped within a day or
two of receipt of payment. Personal checks on an individual's first order or two may require 2
weeks to clear. Foreign customers should make payment in U.S. dollars, payable through a U.S.
bank. Foreign postal money orders denominated in U.S. dollars are also acceptable, as are wire
transfers. Payment is also accepted through Visa, Mastercard, American Express & PayPal.
Or you may pre-authorize credit card payment as discussed above.
Shipping and packing charges (with insurance) for U.S. orders are added at the rate of $7.50 for
the first 3 LP's, tapes, or CD’s, and $.50 for each additional. Orders including books or 78's will
have shipping charges computed individually, since larger boxes, more packing material, and
greater weights are involved. Similarly, shipments of CD’s alone will cost a little less. Rates for
foreign shipments by insured air mail (surface mail is no longer available as of May 2007) now
$32.00 for the first LP or tape, and $2.50 for each additional. Canadian insured air mail rates
are $25.00 (1st 3 items); $1.00 (each additional). For foreign parcels under four pounds, I will
also quote the less-expensive uninsured rate as an option on each invoice.
I will reserve records for 6 months for a deposit of 10% of the invoice amount. Please
understand that deposits are not refundable should you fail to remit the balance on time, nor does
forfeiture of a deposit eliminate responsibility to make good on bids: individuals who do not
honor their bids do not receive further catalogs.
Changes in standing bids (increases or decreases in amounts offered; additions to or withdrawals
of bids) are accepted if I receive them by the auction's deadline. I expect bidders to make good
on the offers standing on that date. If you wish to bid on more items than you can afford, please
prioritize your bids and indicate the total that you can spend. I will run down your winning bids,
stop at your limit, and bill you only for those.
Condition Grading
Grading used records is difficult since a subjective element is always present and variations in
equipment will cause differences in sound. My method: each disc is examined visually to note
marks which may be audible. Such defects are auditioned and, in any case, each record is spot-
checked in several places on both sides for surface noise and other defects which are not visible.
Records are then graded by as follows:
FS - Factory-sealed
A - Records in the general category of A are in excellent condition. A
record graded A- will be virtually perfect, but may have an occasional very light tick or
slight noise in quiet passages: A- is my typical grade for a domestically-pressed disc which
appears mint; "A- to A" is used for the best foreign pressings and unusually fine American
ones.
B - Records in the general category of B are in good condition. They will
have no serious scratches and will not suffer from breakup of the musical sound. A record
graded B+ will have no scratches and only minor surface noise. A grade of B or B-
indicates greater degrees of noise and may also involve light blemishes or scratches, but
the degree of defect will not impair enjoyment of the music to a great extent.
C - These records are in fair condition. They will be playable, but noisy.
D - These records are in poor condition; perhaps unplayable.
If isolated portions of a disc sound worse than the grade indicates, specific flaws are noted in
detail. A slash mark between grades indicates differences between sections of the disc, generally
between sides. Mono discs are graded with the amplifier in mono mode.
Please bear two things in mind about my grading: First, because it is based on audition (rather
than only visual inspection) it tells you not only how a record looks, but how it sounds: it is a
rating not only of how well the record has been cared for but how well it was pressed to begin
with. Second, the grade is assigned without regard for a record's age. A disc pressed in the
1950's and graded B+ is probably an excellent or mint copy of a typical pressing from that era. I
try to be conservative in my grading, but if you receive a record which you feel is in condition
inferior to its grade, you may return it within two weeks for full refund of its cost.
Happy Browsing!!!

Open Reel Pre-Recorded Tapes
I have not auditioned all of the tapes below, but those to which I have listened are in
excellent condition, and all are so guaranteed. When a listing contains more music than
would fit on a single LP, I have indicated the LP equivalent in parentheses as I do with
the record listings; I am no longer counting the reels also. Tapes are 7 1/2 ips, 4-Track,
non-Dolby and include libretti for vocal works unless otherwise indicated. With some of
the rarer Barclay-Crocker issues I have placed a number at the end of the listing
indicating the total number of copies of the tape ever made. In one of their last flyers, BC
published these numbers to give an idea of which items were particularly scarce. If you
are interested in Barclay Crocker's specifically, here is where you will find them: #7,
11, 14, 20, 64, 65, 77-9, 81, 87, 93-4, 104-5, 107-8, 114, 117-8, 119, 121-2, 126, 136,
141-2, 146, 150, 155 & 156. With some of the "audiophile" material I have noted reviews
or comments I have found of a tape's LP counterpart (or the tape itself) in The Absolute
Sound by the letters TAS followed by issue number, colon, page number (i.e. 58:139).
The following codes also apply:

PAPER: Books
All books listed below are in excellent condition unless otherwise noted. This means that
you may find minor scuffing or occasional marks, but everything is physically sturdy and
shows no more than the expected signs of careful use. Let me know if having a dust
jacket is important to you, since I have not noted those instances where they are present:
usually they are there in more recent books and absent for older ones. Books can be hard
to categorize - it is best if you browse all groups! Postage in US is same as for a single
LP, but overseas will be quoted specifically since books are usually a good deal heavier.

AUDIOPHILE AND SPECIAL LABEL RECORDS
The following several sections are devoted to listings of records by manufacturer in order
of prefix and issue number. In most of these cases, either an individual item or a whole
series has a following among groups of collectors on the basis of either quality of
recorded sound to begin with or of pressing vintage (or both); in some cases (audiophile
or not) the label per se has so devoted a following that it makes sense to list discs here
rather than in an artist or repertoire category. Since many of these audiophiles are also
followers of The Abso!ute Sound magazine, I have also included notations when I have
found reviews or comments regarding specific discs in this publication. These take the
form of the issue number followed by a colon, then the page number, i.e. [38:155].
Please consult these references directly if you are interested in what TAS has said. Their
content in generally favorable, but they are not always so. Also, I have included these
references even in cases where TAS has discussed or listed a different issue of the same
recording I have listed (for example, a domestic vs. an imported pressing, or a reissue vs.
original issue). So do not automatically assume that a TAS reference means a rave
review of the specific item listed. When the letter "L" follows one of these notes, it means
that the item was included on Harry Pearson's list on that page in that issue (rather than
meaning that the item received an actual review or comment). [If you have a specific
interest in the early Columbia stereo pressings with "2-eyes" labels, or the even earlier
"6-eyes" pressings, here is where they are in this catalog: #347, 360, 426, 450,
453, 489, 516-7, 1046, 1049-50, 1124, 1135, 1148, 1165-6, 1215, 1229,

these copies are the deluxe editions, with fine art work on the covers, extra heavy sleeves
and dowel-rod spines (boxed sets did not have the dowel-rod spines). In a few instances
the spine is gone (indicated with "ns"); in some cases the copy is from their thrift edition
("th"), wherein the same fine pressings were packaged in simple sleeves without notes
and sold for lower prices than the deluxe editions. Stereo items are usually either early
pressings ["red" = red label for the very earliest of them, or "blue" = blue label used
until the late '60's] or 45 rpm audiophile issues from the early 1980's. I sometimes also
list other stereo Angels here when their EMI incarnations have been particularly
popular.

Listings of Mercuries follow on the next page
LP's: Mercuries
For the SR series (and some of the others) I am now replacing my previous pressing
designation by means of label-type with designations by means of stamper numbers, since
most of my customers seem to find that information more complete and useful. The FR's
are the earliest stampers, followed by the RFR's, CFR's and M's. FR stampers no longer
appeared in issues with numbers above about SR-90265 (some earlier numbers may also
have been pressed first as RFR's), and there were no RFR's either above about SR-90500.
Excellent (or mint) copies of Mercury's early stereo pressings (particularly those with the
early FR stampers), like those of most companies in the late 50's and early 60's,
sometimes grade A- but frequently have a degree of surface noise which falls a little
below my audition grade of A-, yet is quieter than what I grade B+. These are graded
"A- to B+." Items graded A- are very fine copies of very quiet pressings, and grades
above that are exceptional.

LP's: RCA's
I am now listing RCA's all together in one group when they are either early pressings in
which customers have indicated an interest, or when they are later pressings of issues
which have had a particular following. Records are listed alphanumerically by prefix
and number. Codes for pressings refer to label types, and are given in brackets just
before the grade at the end of the listing (e.g. [SD]). RCA pressing codes are as follows:
PD = Plum Dog (Nipper, the RCA/HMV dog, shown against a shaded
plum background; used for the last RCA classical mono issues,
c.1954-1958).
SD = Shaded Dog (as above, but with fire-engine red background; used
during the early stereo era, c.1958-1963, for both mono and stereo
classical issues except some Sorias).
WD = White Dog (also called "Plain Dog"; Nipper here is against an
unshaded background of Christmas red; used for all classical issues
except Sorias c.1964-1969).
ND = No Dog (large "RCA" in open white letters on left of label; c.1969-1977).
LD = Late Dog (small dog on upper right of label against dark red; c.1977
forward).
BL = Black label (for popular records almost exclusively)
CP = Canadian Pressing.
PL = Plum Label (for Victrola [VIC or VICS] issues, the earliest pressings,
c. 1964-1968).
SS = Soria Series (special label of Christmas red with no dog used only
for the Sorias; the first Sorias had SD labels, but switched to SS
about 1961 - before WD era).
I am now also including the stamper numbers of each stereo disc (and some monos too)
next to the pressing code. If the information is available I also show the names of the
producer and engineer in another pair of brackets. Please note that for these issues - as
for most records from the early stereo era - copies in apparently mint condition
frequently grade "A- to B+" in my audition. Copies graded A- are very fine, and higher
grades are quite extraordinary from this period.

Classic Records RCA Reissues
Since Classic Records began their silky reissues of RCA originals in the mid-1990's,
there has been a bewildering array of issues, deletions, reissues in similar packaging,
reissues in different packaging, etc. I cannot keep track of what is still available and in
what form, but I think all of these have had list prices of $30.00 or more. The copies I
list below are all in first-class condition; I am simply going to set a blanket minimim bid
amount of $15 and let my customers tell me what they are worth today!
959.*CLASSIC RECORDS LSC-1817: OFFENBACH - Gaite Parisienne.
Fiedler/Boston Pops. [Probably the first stereo recording made by
Fiedler and the Pops, June 1954; the original release had the shortest
"Schwann Life" of any item I have researched - only eight months
separated its appearance in August 1958 from its deletion in April 1959.

this was released initially in mono only on LM-1831 and never issued in
stereo at all until ARL1-2044 in 1977. This issue uses the original 1954

964. CLASSIC RECORDS LSC-2113: STRAVINSKY - Petrouchka; Firebird
Suite. Monteux/PCO. [This really is one of the most exciting of the
Classic Record reissues, because this Petrouchka was never issued by
RCA in stereo. The original LM-2113 was a mono-only issue, but the
Firebird Suite was later issued in true stereo on Victrola. The Petrouchka,
despite being in recorded in stereo also, was passed over because
Monteux subsequently re-recorded it with the BSO. Apart from a brief
appearance on a late London STS issue, this Classic Records issue is its
only stereo issue. Exciting to see the nice Chagall cover with the "Living

Beecham - A Musical Biography
The eight discs listed below often circulate individually because each is in its own jacket
with full progam notes (and may indeed have been available for individual purchase).
But they were also issued in a large box including Alan Jefferson's 1979 hard-cover 246-
page book, {Sir Thomas Beecham - A Centenary Tribute} (including many terrific
photos). The whole project was dedicated to the extraordinary engineer, Anthony C.
Griffith, who did the transfers. If there are those who would like to acquire all eight
records, along with the box and book, just let me know - there is no lot number, but the
minimum bid would be $150.

notes in the album contradict themselves regarding which of the three
Stoky/Phila Firebird Suite recordings [1924, 1927 or 1935] this is; clearly
it is not the acoustic 1924 one, but the back cover states M-53 from 1927,
