 Ah, an Aussie one!

It looked the same as those I'd seen on popsike and Gripsweat, which looked US...

(Don't get yer breeches in too much of a jangle though, they are not massively valuable!)

So it could be that 2003 and 2004 are the two I'd be looking for to complete a set... At least it opens the possibility that they may exist.

Thanks Phil, I shall now be keeping an eye open for those! :)

 P.S. MM, if you were looking at the "US" issue in Discogs, it's actually an Australian copy, showing the Australian company names Astor, Radio Corporation Pty. Ltd. and Esquire Records Pty. Ltd., so I am about to correct it.

 Release date added from ad in Gramophone, June 1956 (page 18), announcing Pye's first classical Mercury releases (MRL 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2005 - no 2003 or 2004, though!).

 This is one of those interesting items that's got me a bit stumped.

I can't find any reference to this issue / pressing anywhere on the internet, in spite of the fact that it's by the renowned Roth String Quartet... featuring a young Janos Starker!

The closest I can find is the original US Mercury issue, the accompanying two other issues...

(to round out the 6 quartets of the title)

... and the box set of all three.

But no Pye UK pressings (and distribution)

The cover is the same as the US one(s), except in a slightly different colour scheme (Mine has a large mint green violin shape bordered by black with red stripes, and red with green stripes.

And as there are only two quartets per album, this must mean there are two other Pye pressed UK Mercury albums out there somewhere comprised of the other four Mozart: Haydn quartets... but again...not a sniff.

It does sound great though! :)
