Condition: Slight roughness in the label area is a stamping issue, DOES NOT AFFECT PLAY.
EXCELLENT MINUS, unworn rare scuffs, tiny 3mm scratch start of Caprice causes rare ticks.
Record plays very quiet with amazing violin tone. This is an exceptionally nice copy.
Prihoda, Vasa 1900-1960 Czechoslovakia,Vodnany / Italy / Turkey - Austria,Vienna
violinist
At 19 he was discovered by Toscanini, and that`s how his career florished. Recordings with Paganini-Wilhelmj concerto, Nel cor piu... Sarasate, Dvorak are brillliant. Tartini-devil`s trill is wonderful with his own cadenza. His tone is so smooth, a rare quality, not at all heavy and 100% pure. A briliant violinist.
Vasa Prihoda (1900-60) was the greatest Czech violinist. A dazzling virtuoso with a very distinctive personality, his career hit a speed bump when he decided to remain in Europe during WW II. Worse, his ex-wife, the Jewish violinist Alma Rose, spent her last days in Auschwitz, and Prihoda apparently did nothing to try to save her. It appears that he did not know that she had come back to the continent and been captured after she fled with her father Arnold to England. It also has been little noted that after he and Alma divorced, he married another Jew.

A Quick NOTE ON GRADING AND SHIPPING:
As you can see from my feedback, I try hard to earn your POSITIVE FEEDBACK and FIVE STAR RATINGS.
If for any reason your transaction was NOT SATISFACTORY, pls contact me and I will work something out with you. YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A REASON TO GIVE ME A NEGATIVE RATING or a LOW STAR RATING.
Quick note on grading:
The Grade (Excellent to Poor, I don't give Mint) refers to the WEAR of the record. Any other defects are stated separately
When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to P), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise.
"SUPERQUIET" is basically noiseless, like a vinyl pressing.
"VERY QUIET" is an exceptionally quiet record for a given pressing.
"Quiet" is a record that is a great example without undue noise for a give pressing.
These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment.
Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.
If you win multiple items, pls send me an INVOICE REQUEST to calculate the correct postage. Ebay check out will not give you the correct multiple item discount!
Records will be packed safely between corrugated cardboard in a sturdy box with plenty of padding for safe shipment.
Shipment is usually Media Mail, unless you request another service. Shipping is at your risk, I will be happy to insure items at your cost.
I charge actual postage plus a small fee for packing materials
As always, I guarantee your satisfaction. If you don't like the item, just return it, and I will refund the full purchase price.
If you are in the San Francisco area, I encourage pick-up in person.
US Domestic Shipping:
Here is a guideline for US Media Mail Shipping:
Prices below are for regular 78 rpm records. Up to about 5 records, I will ship Edison Discs for the same rates. Albums from Album Sets count as 1 record. Above that and for international shipments, it will be actual weight plus a small packing charge (1-3$ depending on size of shipment)
1 record: 4.75 – 5.50$
2 records: 6.50$
5 records: 8.00$
10 records: 12.00$
MANY MORE RECORDS: Don't worry. I safely ship 40 - 50 pounds of records double boxed in moving boxes, and even then Media Mail will probably not exceed 35$.
Please send me a message if you would like to get an estimate for you shipping rates!
I am very happy to ship records worldwide.
Please use the EBAY shipping cost only as a guideline. My actual charges are usually lower
One record usually ships for 25$ for 10" 25-35$ for most 12" records (Less for Canada).
As always, I would appreciate any suggestions and corrections from you, pls contact me with any question.
Thank you very much, and good luck bidding !!!
