    For the hi fi enthusiasts: Unusual classical LP record find

    The sleeve looks fairly ordinary






    .. but the inner sleeves ??







    ... and their contents ...











    They are the metal masters of the remastered recordings ... TTBOMK probably diamond cut onto lacquered aluminium discs

    These are 'positive' cut masters from which master negatives (stampers) are made ... the 'stampers' are used to 'press' the actual 'positive' vinyl LPs

    They play well but I've only played them a couple of times.

    How and why they ended up in a Red Cross charity shop is a mystery ... discovered whilst looking through the shop's boxes of LPs

    I made an extra donation.
