We ship in ONE DAY during the work week! Check our feedback!

Here is an incredible set of 45 LP Records (39 of them either New or played once, looking MINT) and 6 being played and need to have some record cleaner applied, but overall, INCREDIBLE! If you are music teacher or a lover of Big Band jazz, you can't do better than this. There are 15 sets of LP's, and each set has 3 records and a 65 page hardback book, so nearly 1000 pages of awesome info about all of the artists and songs. I think each song (maybe 250 to 270 songs) is described and given an historic background. Worth the price alone! Ah, but the music is fabulous, by the original artists and on high quality vinyl.

You can look at the pictures to get a better idea. Looks to me like the previous owners played two sets of discs only and the rest, not at all. I looked at each record and book, and the books are MINT and the records - at least 39 of them - look unplayed or barely played to me. Quite an awesome collection. The last picture shows the two sets that have been played and need cleaning. I see fingerprints on them. But overall, this is an awesome collection and Near Mint to MINT! The cases are in mint shape too, see no problems with these. You will love the books and discograpy as I have. These weigh about 68 pounds, so I can ship for cheap via Media Mail, but that takes a long time from here, usually about 3 to 4 weeks. Media Mail is $40. I can also ship Fed Ex Ground or Air Priority or 2nd Day, probably in two boxes. That will be $110. (If it comes to less, I'll send a refund). No overseas, sorry, they are too heavy. If you have a freight forwarder, that will work. Please ignore the Ebay $4.00 quote, that is for one record and we have 45 of them.
