From Wikipedia:  Leonard Bernstein (August 25, 1918 – October 14, 1990) was an American composer, conductor, author, music lecturer, and pianist. He was among the first conductors born and educated in the United States of America to receive worldwide acclaim. According to The New York Times, he was "one of the most prodigiously talented and successful musicians in American history."  He may possibly be the best known conductor in the world.

IMPORTANT: I’m just in the beginning of listing over 2,000 LaserDiscs.   Some are really rare and entertaining (like some old bands, classical performances, and movies you just can't find in other formats).  Please check them out by clicking on "Sellers Other Listings".  Please feel free to contact me if there are titles you are looking for that I haven't yet listed for sale.  Most of them I've personally checked out and they play great unless of course they are brand new and factory sealed.  All of my pictures are of the actual disc covers and clearly show their condition (a picture’s worth a thousand words).  Only a small number of them have and show creased corners and disc ring wear.  They are all currently protected in thick (4 mil) plastic vinyl record covers and they all have protective inner sleeves which curtails any further wear since I bought them.  Some of them still have the factory plastic packaging too.  Several discs have a yellow sticky note on the bottom which provides me some information and they will come off before I ship the item.  Some discs have price stickers on them which I plan to leave on for your own historical amusement.  'punchouts' are noted.  You can usually remove the price stickers with a hair blow-dryer if you prefer not to have them.  Personally, I love laser discs.  Their covers are often amazing works of art which is something I really miss on the smaller DVD or CD cases.  LaserDiscs are especially appreciated by audiophiles who love the superior 'uncompressed' sound.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
