THE BEATLES BOX UK - 1st PRESSING - 1980
AUCTION ONLY - HIGHEST BID WINS - THANK YOU
Please note: Depending upon where you live, ebay might automatically add import duty to your winning bid.
This box set featuring EIGHT albums is packed with original Beatles tracks, with some appearing in a previously unreleased STEREO format. Many of the albums have a generous SIXTEEN tracks on them, so the set as a whole contains 125 songs to enjoy and is also a great way to instantly own a fabulous collection taken from a mixture of single releases as well as L.P. tracks. Each album presents the songs in chronological order, just as they were were originally released in the U.K. from 1962 through to 1970.
Please note: This is a heavy item (2kg), but my figure for posting is still below the actual cost to send secure, wherever you live.
=====================================================================================
THE BOX: EX+
Hard to find this good, both externally and internally. Almost as good as the day it was created, with just a few barely noticeable signs of handling. The hinged section of the lid is perfectly intact. Made from thick card, designed to cope with the weight of eight L.P.'s, this is a very sturdy item. There is a cutaway section designed to assist with removal of the records, which nearly always splits right through and although this one is close to that, it has not completely failed.
THE RECORDS: NEAR MINT
Seldom played, the vinyls are in MINT condition with a few albums displaying minimal, light alignment trails. Audio throughout is MINT, although as the disc have probably all been played I will grade them as NEAR MINT.
THE L.P. COVERS: NEAR MINT
It is not easy to find a full set of covers in perfect condition, as they were made using very thin card and as such, are prone to displaying crescent thumb bends or even tears. All eight are in superb condition, with nothing more than the odd light signs of handling on just a few. The corners are nice and square and the laminated panels remain smooth, throughout.
This set includes the rarer misprinted #2 cover which has John and Paul reversed and playing their guitars the wrong way round.
THE INNER SLEEVES: EX+
All polythene lined with no seam splits on any, just general age related creasing, nothing more.
====================================================================
The photos are of the actual item. I always use professional, anti-static, cleaning fluid and listen to the whole disc. Professional mailers are always used.
I have more Beatles records listed right now, so please have a look.
