Description

NOTE: This box set is missing one LP: "Music for Films Vol. 2". However, that LP can be found and added to make this set complete. It's currently on Amazon for $99, but I've seen it for less elsewhere.

This box set is getting very hard to find. It currently sells on Amazon for $1,300 - $2,000!!! I am only selling this due to a financial emergency, and have set a very low "buy it now" price of $350.

I bought this new in 1985, and barely played the records, so all the vinyl and the sleeves are in great shape. The box does show wear, as you can see in the pictures. It is fully intact and solid though, and could likely be touched up and restored.

Carefully packed and promptly shipped to you. Thank you for your bid. Questions are welcomed.
