Description

It looks like a subscription set that was bought aspirationally, and the original subscriber either never got around to listening to all the albums or took their sweet time unsubscribing.

This is not a complete set. 10 of the 17 sets are still sealed/unopened. The opened sets all appear to have been played once - twice at most - and then left in the rack. Each set includes a booklet and pinup photo of the featured artist. There is minor carton rub on a few boxes, but no visible blemishes on any of the open-box LPs.

Photos are grouped to show the sealed sets in one photo, the unsealed in the other.

Each artist's set includes 3 full LPs. Artists featured in open boxes include:
Louis Armstrong
Benny Goodman
Duke Ellington
Bix Biederbecke
Lester Young
Jelly Roll Morton
Earl 'Fatha' Hines

Sealed sets include:
Billie Holiday
Jack Teagarden
Henry 'Red' Allen
Red Norvo
Coleman Hawkins
Pee Wee Russell
James P. Johnson
Benny Carter
Sidney Bechet
Fats Waller

This is a heavy set...nearly 30lb of vinyl and cardboard. It can't be shipped stateside for less than the posted shipping price, in fact it will cost considerably more than the posted price but ebay will not allow a higher fixed shipping cost, and the size/weight calculator feature for my area is regrettably still not working.

SO...I've UNDERpriced shipping for both Canada and the US, and factored that into my initial-bid price. I hope that makes sense.

Canadian ebayers: this is a taxable item, but no tax will be added to your purchase price. Any taxes will be paid by the seller.
