This is a confirmed original First Pressing of CBS Records released in France. The key points to confirm it is a First Pressing are as follows. First Pressing Verification Points Catalog Number (CBS 78264): The CBS 78264 number clearly printed on the top left of the box front and the top right of the booklet is the unique identification number for the stereo First Pressing set originally released in France in 1975. Grands Interprètes Series: The 'grands interprètes' logo printed in a cursive style at the bottom front of the box is a unique package design applied only to the original First Pressing series released by French CBS at that time.

This is the typical label form for French CBS classical record First Pressings in the mid-1970s. Therefore, you can confidently identify the record you possess as a precious French original First Pressing from the 1975 release, rather than a reissue or a later release. *Record: EX++ grade or higher In good condition with only hairline scratches considering its age *Jacket: Good (refer to photos) In-person transaction / Delivery available Multiple album bundles I have materials organized for bulk purchase If you purchase in bulk, I will offer a much better price If you are interested, please contact me via chat or message, and I will send you the information ^^ Both in-person transaction and delivery are available Free shipping on orders over 100,000 won Cash on delivery: 5,000 won
