Melvin M. Belli
The Voice of Modern Trials: Volume I
Album of Three Long Play 33 1/3 RPM Records

Unsigned
This historic three-record set serves as a masterclass in mid-century legal advocacy by the legendary "King of Torts," Melvin M. Belli. Produced by The Belli Foundation, these recordings offer a rare auditory record of pioneering courtroom techniques, including opening statements and jury arguments for landmark cases like the Fisher RR crossing accident and the Maureen Connolly personal injury suit. The set exemplifies the educational outreach of the Belli Foundation during the late 1950s and early 1960s, capturing the dramatic and intellectual rigor that defined Belli's influential career.

Condition: Good vintage condition. The textured outer cover exhibits age-appropriate shelf wear, including scuffing, edge rubbing, and some loss to the spine material. The interior pages are largely well-preserved with light toning. The vinyl discs appear structurally sound with visible surface dust and light handling marks; records are untested for playback quality.
