DECCA RING 1-22 

'MADE IN ENGLAND'

*THE ORIGINAL 22 LP HEAVY GREEN EMBOSSED-FRONT SPECIAL PRESENTATION WOODEN BOX SET containing 5 INDIVIDUAL SLIDING COMPARTMENTS each containing BLUE/RED/GREEN AND PURPLE GLOSSY LAMINATED DECCA OUTER SLEEVES and MATCHING COLOURED FULL LIBRETTOS  each with ORIGINAL DECCA BLUE PANEL INNERS and MADE IN ENGLAND *TED BURKETT* MASTERED DECCA, NEW MALDEN PRESSINGS

THE GLOSSY, LAMINATED COLOURED SLEEVES ARE PERFECT, NO FOLDS AND THE BOOKLETS HAVE CLEARLY NEVER BEEN OPENED OR FINGERED. A NICE DETAIL IS THAT GOTTERDAMMERUNG CONTAINS A MAUVE CARDBOARD CIRCLE THAT IS CLEARLY THE PUNCHED-OUT CENTRE OF ONE OF THE GLOSSY OUTER SLEEVES.

THE LPs HAVE ONE SPINDLE-MARK (SEE PHOTO) AND WERE CLEARLY HANDLED WITH GREAT CARE, AS WAS THE ENTIRE SET.

SIDE 5 OF "THE RING OF THE NIEBELUNGEN", THE INTRODUCTION WITH MUSICAL EXAMPLES BY DERYCK COOKE IS THE ONLY SIDE WHICH HAS ONE TRACK MARK, WHICH DOES NOT SOUND.

THE REST OF THE SET IS IMMACULATE.

THE BOX, TOO, IS IN MARVELLOUS CONDITION. (SEE PHOTOS)
