$

There are in nice shape.

Up for auction / your consideration is a very small collection of Vintage Franklin Mint 100 Greatest Recordings Of All Times.

Each of the records are in very good condition.

The included information, and or history of the recordings are all still in very readable condition. They are not perfect as there is dust and yellowing of the edges of the papers used for the information and or history.

Each of the records are protected by plastics covers and they are all present and in descent condition. These covers are also yellowing/ not perfect, but they are complete and used to protect each record.

Each of the binders? are not perfect either, but mostly these is only some corner damage to a few of the binders. Please review each of the pictures for their condition.

I have examined each of the records are there are no scratches or gouges (deep non-recorded groves), each record is in outstanding shape. There maybe a small amount of dust but there is not enough for me top detect with my eyes.

I orginally collected these for my dad, as he loved to listen to old classical music with a record player. He used them to relax and to enjoy the mood it used to put him into.

There are 14 binders with 2 recordings in each totaling 28 recordings of a 100 recordings (50 binder, 100 record collection).
