NEAR MINT !

 

This is as close to mint as you can get, short of buying an unopened box.

 

I actually, own three of these box sets, one of which is still unopened. This particular box set has only been played once on my Thorens turntable with a Ortofon Cadenza moving coil cartridge.

 

SHIPPING:

 

I will pack the box set in the original shipping carton, and pack the original shipping carton in a larger, heavy duty box.

Within 2 days after receiving payment, I will take the shipping carton to a local UPS shipping store in Crestview, Florida 32536, to get the weight, dimensions and shipping cost estimates. The buyer can pay for shipping costs directly to: "A+ PACK N SHIP" 1328 N. Ferdon Blvd. Crestview, Florida 32536 Phone: 850- 683-9169. I have shipped in this manner before, and it saves the buyer money!!

 

If you have any questions about the box set, please feel free to send an email. I will be happy to respond.

 ABOUT THE ALBUMS:
In 1982, "The Beatles: The Collection" is a limited edition boxed set of the group's 14 original disc releases, which were first issued in England on the Parlophone and Apple labels from EMI Records. Created by Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs (MFSL), these recordings were exclusively transferred directly from The Beatles original recording studio master tapes to master lacquer discs. The discs were then refrigerated and flown from MFSL to Yokohama, Japan, for plating and pressing at the Victor Company. Here, they received the meticulous attention to precision and purity to produce these superior grade albums. The enduring value of these boxed sets is due to MFSL's legendary quality control standards, exclusive half-speed mastering system, and use of the world's highest quality vinyl, which ensured that every note, every nuance was immaculately preserved, and that each album will last many times longer than any conventionally produced LP.

The box set also comes with a 12 by 12 40-page color booklet which explains the MFSL process.

Please Please Me - MFSL 1-1012

The albums are protected within a 3-part system - a cover, a folded insert-board, and a sleeve.
1.Covers: At a glance, the covers look identical, but look closely and you will see that each cover is unique, because each cover features a reproduction of the actual log sheet used by the producers and engineers who worked the respective master tapes for that particular album. The log sheets, themselves, are fascinating, as they document the exceedingly small number of people who'd had contact with these tapes since the 1960s. 2.Insert-boards: The inner, white insert boards are simply printed with the words, "Original Master Recordings," and "The Beatles" and "The Collection" and fold to enclose the album sleeves.
3.Sleeves: The sleeves, are described by MFSL as, anti-abrasive, anti-static "rice paper" sleeves.

The Geo-Disc is in original condition.
