Mother and stamper codes are "1-C" "1-B", guaranteeing it's almost the first press.

The record is in pristine, like-new condition.
There are no characteristic label bumps.
It's in excellent condition.
The recording includes:
Bizet: Suite "Carmen"
Gounod: Ballet Suite "Faust"
The performers are Alexander Gibson conducting the Royal Opera House Orchestra, Covent Garden.
Recorded on February 10, 1959, at Kingsway Hall, London.
A masterpiece that needs no explanation.
The US version was released as LSC2449 at full price, but the original UK version is this VICS format, which is the first pressing.
The delicate high frequencies and the reproduction of depth are superb.
Personally, I think it surpasses the quality of the US LSC.
By the way, the original LSC in the overseas market costs over 100,000 yen.
Listed on the TAS list.
An absolute audiophile record.
Gigantic rare record.
