The ultimate box-set for Bing Crosby! Complete and in excellent condition. All the records (17 of them) are in excellent condition with little signs of play. They all have strong shine and gloss with strong semi-glossed labels that have not been marked or stickered-up! All the 17 records come in custom printed "Bing/Decca Records" protective sleeves and all the sleeves are in remarkable condition...flat, strong and not torn. The custom locking box is in terrific condition with some signs of shelf wear and overall general wear. A couple misses on the cover graphics and a surface tear from a removed label on the back of the box. Corners are strong, very little shelf slide on the bottom edge, the two hinges are secure with no wobbling. The lock is functional and securely keeps the box closed. The biography booklet is in excellent shape with no writing, markings or stickers. It has an intense biography of Bing Crosby, record details and a discography. Great photos which I have included a few in the listing. The original key is included and retains a bright shine...brass plated over steel (a magnet sticks to it) and a small envelope for the key. A gorgeous box-set...complete.
Extra precautions will be taken and there will be inserts placed between all of the 45's to prevent label to label friction and possible label wear. Even though they are in sleeves, the labels are subject to wear.
