From Liverpool—The Beatles Box, 8LP Vinyl Box Set Japan Version w/ Obi.
Here is a rare Beatles compilation "From Liverpool - The Beatles Box" Japanese version. Released in 1980/1981. This mainly consists of their well-known hits spread over 8 albums, but also contains some rarities. Known to have superior sound quality, this set is a great addition to your collection or as a gift. Some rare mixes are listed at the bottom of this description. Please see pictures for condition and contents. Because of the picture limit, I wasn’t able to show every record or all the details but everything in the listed pictures is an accurate representation of all of the contents.
- Catalog number EAS-77011-18
- With Obi
- 12 page liner notes
- 20 page lyrics booklet
- No poster
- 8 LPs
- Stereo
Condition: NM (near mint)/VG+ (very good +)
The box edges have wear on them, and the corners show some damage. Nothing major—it’s not falling apart or flimsy or anything like that. It feels sturdy and functional. Besides the edge/corner wear, in excellent, near-mint shape. The obi is in good shape, with tears that are taped up and edge/corner wear.
The sleeves for the vinyl are all in Near Mint shape. The vinyls are in near Mint shape, tested out and plays very well, very quiet. Booklets are in NM shape as well. I would say overall this is a NM but with the obi being torn and taped back, it would be VG+ for the packaging.
