Scheherazade, Set of 10 near perfect vinyl long playing records. Released in 1968. This item was purchased at an auction. I inspected every LP and could find no flaws, but I state that they are Near Mint because I am not familiar enough with the rating system to call them Mint. I have post all the info below, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
