Carnegie set
Yearning for the richness of classical on vinyl? You need this American Express cardholder subscription 19-volume (vol. 20 never showed, but you can often find it on eBay) Carnegie Hall Library of Classical Music set with 95 33rpm discs encompassing a complete history of Western classical music 1700s-1900s from labels including Deutsche Grammophon and Philips featuring top symphonies, musicians and conductors from around the world. Oddly, vol. 3 (Brahms) came from AmEx's 1st series circa 1976 with the larger slipcase box; all others are 2nd series clamshell boxes circa 1982. Each volume holds its 5 discs in paper sleeves within heavy card sleeves in even heavier leatherette box case with 8-page booklet. All discs are in excellent condition with no skips or scratches, except for one disc in the Mozart set that was pressed slightly off-center. A lifetime of enjoyment, and will look very impressive on your shelf (needs 25" x 13" x 13") - $380
