The collection, the box, and the contents are in great condition. More pictures are available upon request. Please ask if you have any questions. The serial number for this set is #4901. It’s very rare to find such a low serial number. I have tried to take a couple sample pictures of the records to show the pristine quality of the actual record. Please note the light shining off the records, is simply light reflection. The records have been well kept and are in excellent condition, but there is some minor wear from age on the sleeves and covers. Each record is housed in a poly sleeve within a cover and then the actual album cover. There is a geo disc with a cover in excellent condition. It can be shown in a picture upon request. The following is from Wikipedia. The Beatles: The Collection is a vinyl boxed set of every Beatles album until’82 remastered at half speed from the original stereo master recordings, except for Magical Mystery Tour which was mastered from Capitol Records’ submasters with the last three tracks in rechanneled stereo. Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (MFSL) pressed a second run of the Beatles Boxed Set for a total production run of 25,000 over the next two years or until October 1985. Each album was pressed on black vinyl by the Victor Company of Japan. The album covers were replaced with photographs of tape boxes and log sheet. The original album covers were included in a booklet which also featured a certificate of authenticity as this was a limited edition collection. Missing from this collection were all of the Beatles’ singles, extended Play and a few miscellaneous tracks that did not appear on their original UK albums. It is for someone who will appreciate the rich history and value of the offering. T hanks for stopping by!
