Not exactly straightforward to ezplain

U can Google red seal vs gold seal

VS silver seal vs living stereo etc

Then u have a sense...

Typically If it is a same session of classical music but one in red and in on gold..., we may assume gold seal may be better..

Some said.. Lesser known less popular conductor may be red seal... Etc..

Suppose R33 have some expert LP collector... They may able to offer good explanation

'Red Seal’ Was a Mark of Quality in Records

JAN. 18, 1990 12 AM PT - LA TIMES

Question: I have some Victor Red Seal records that have been in the family for years. How far back does the label go?--T.S.

Answer: Eldridge Johnson, a name somewhat obscure in the history of music-related inventions, founded the Victor Record Co. shortly after the turn of the century. As it turned out, the firm became the predecessor of RCA Victor.

More than two decades later, Johnson was bought out by Radio Corp. of America. During that time, Johnson’s firm manufactured both phonographs and records, but it’s the records that most collectors seek these days.

The term “Red Seal” got started with Johnson’s brainstorm to color-code his records--he would assign colors to different kinds of recordings. Thus, “Red Seal” referred to special recordings made by well-known performers.

In time, Victor's Red Seal label became synonymous with a product that was of top quality in terms of sound recording. (Actually, engineers and music experts reviewing the old Red Seal records have generally concluded that the sound quality probably wasn’t much better than that of competing recording companies.)

Few, if any, competitors could touch Johnson for the quality of his performers, which included some of the best of the time. One of those artists was Enrico Caruso, who in 1903 cut what is believed to be the first record to sell 1 million copies.

In the field of the phonographs, Johnson scored a real coup in 1901.

That was the year Victor acquired rights to Nipper, the white fox terrier who listened quizzically to “His Master’s Voice” coming out of the speaking horn of a Victrola.

No product of the imagination, Nipper was a real dog whose British artist-owner painted the original likeness of his pet in the 1890s, along with the “His Master’s Voice” message displayed in the painting. (The artist’s name was Francis Barraud.)

A variation of the Nipper design was sold in the 1890s to the Gramophone Corp. of Great Britain. Victor acquired the North American rights to Nipper in 1901.

Nipper became an almost overnight success in terms of an advertising symbol. His image appeared on all Victrolas and Victor records and, right through World War II, a cardboard likeness of Nipper sat outside of thousands of record stores throughout the United States.

多謝咁多位師兄.

最近買了幾張 classical LP, label 是玫瑰紅色RCA His Master's Voice 的, 很美也很新淨, 都是60'年代印製的.
這label 是我見過最美的, 無論顏色留聲機及 Nipper小狗圖案都恰到好處.

這是擁有實體vintage 唱片的一個享受

或者是一個代溝, 總係對digital cover art 感受比較淡一些

還有很多黑膠的封套簡直一幅藝術品一樣
