Bob Dylan "Bootleg series 1-3 Ex condition COL 468068 1

	£		93
	$		123

This is a box set consisting of five vinyl albums recording by Bob Dylan called “Bootleg series 1-3 (rare and unreleased) 1961-1991”. The box is in Ex condition apart from one split corner (see photograph) and two seam splits down the top and left hand side of the bottom section of the box (see pictures). The inner sleeves are all in VG condition with most of them having 1cm seam splits in the middle of each edge of the inner sleeve where the record has worn through. Each record has now been removed from its designated inner sleeve and has been placed in its own poly lined sleeve to prevent damage to the inner sleeve or record. The records have been pressed in black vinyl and have been graded as Ex; they play close to Mint but I’ve graded them as excellent due to minor surface scratching caused by the inner sleeves. This has little if any affect on audio. The booklet is intact; no rips tears etc but has been thumbed and used. This is the original release on the Columbia label. The code for the album is COL 468068 1. The running order is laid out below.
