Obviously the listing links to the wrong picture, but he does have the 
record in the picture actually listed:

http://cgi.ebay.ca/Kurt-Eichhorn-Munich-Philharmonic-schubert-No-4-lp-/380350641759?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item588eaa365f

The May 1953 Schwann lists the Kapell Rach 2 with the Robinghood Dell as 
RCA Victor LM 1097 with Steinberg.  It also says that Columbia ML 4379 
is Rach's Suites 1& 2 for two pianos by Vronsky and Babin.

Now the only question is which does the guy really have, the Victor 
record in the Columbia sleeve or the Columbia record in the Victor 
sleeve.  Better to play it safe and order the Schubert on Mercury.
