that, I believe was reissued on CD. Columbia SET SL-162 is the first full recording of the opera...it is PHENOMENAL! The chances of finding this 1951 release can't be too good, but if you're lucky...Lawrence Williams-Porgy
Camilla Williams-Bess
Inez Mathews-Serena
Warren Coleman-Crown

Good Luck! Great cover art, too! Maybe I should put it on e-bay with a minimum of $100,000??? (I really wouldn't want to sell it...but if someone's pockets were deep enough...?)
