CONDITION:
The gradations of condition I use are as follows: MINT, Near-Mint, Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor.
The condition of the 4 jackets is EXCELLENT throughout. All four show discoloration and general aging, but that is all. There are no bends, owners' markings, seamsplits, or other defects, and the albums remain solid, bright, glossy, highly attractive – overall, these rate as excellent collector’s copies.
The condition of the 4 LPs is VERY GOOD+ throughout. Visually, there are light marks and rubs. In terms of sound, although there is light surface noise throughout, in general playback remains enjoyable. However, those requiring flawless or near-MINT LPs are kindly advised to look elsewhere. Overall, these rates as very good collector's copies.
