LCT-1033 (Die Walkure Act I -- Lehmann, Melchior, Bruno Walter etc.); LM-1217 
(Treasury of Harpsichord Music -- Landowska, later repackaged in a single 
standard cardboard sleeve with booklet); LM-1802 ("An Adventure in High 
Fidelity"); LM-1849 (Verdi: Te Deum, Boito: Mefistofele Prologue -- Toscanini); 
LM-1862 (Romberg: "Deep in My Heart, Dear" -- Romberg, cond.); and LM-1944 
(Busoni: Arlecchino -- Glyndebourne Festival). So was LHMV-1007 (Purcell: Dido 
and Aeneas -- Flagstad et. al.). There were also the entire issued titles in 
LHMV-1 through -32, single LPs in boxes with text inserts and, in many cases, 
art reproductions.

in the USA in single boxes that contained nothing but the record in its regular 
heavy paper sleeve. No printed texts.
