Seller: Cat's Curiosities, Pahrump, NV, U.S.A.
Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Not a book but a pair of 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm stereo vinyl LPs. Monitor MFS 361 (1961?) shows near-mint vinyl in a very-good-plus glossy color cardboard jacket, the troupe offering To I Hola, Pod Borem, Muzyczka, Wyszlabym Za Dziada, Ogarek, etc. Jacket states "Complete English and Polish Texts Enclosed," but if there was originally a lyric sheet, it's missing. Volume 3, meantime, is a 1965 Polish release in a flimsier cardboard jacket, Muza Polaskie Nagrania XL 0143, near-mint vinyl in a very-good-plus cardboard jacket with a red metallic "stereo" sticker affixed to top right of jacket front panel. Here we get the repeat offerings "Muzyczka," "Dolina," and "Wyszlabym Za Dziada," but also "Ptzyspiewki Wielkopolskie," "Przyspiewki Zywieckie," etc. The group first toured North America in 1961; On a follow-up North American tour in 1982, 11 members of the troupe defected to Canada, stating they left because they "wished to be treated as human beings with rights." (Presumably this was before Justin Trudeau started imprisoning Christian ministers for holding church services, seizing people's private bank accounts if they drove their vehicles in protests, and forcing them to eat bugs.) Price for the pair of Mazowsze LPs on two different labels, now reduced from $15.
