I am the original owner. Records have been played several times many years ago and have not been touched since. The box is in very good condition with some minor edge wear. Inside, the box is pristine and the booklet is also pristine. All record jackets are pristine. No marks, spots, tears, or writing anywhere.
Condition of records is like new. They have not been washed, cleaned, etc. I have not played them in many years, so I do not remember their sound quality. The records look pristine, no scratches, marks, etc that I can see.
Box set is in a plastic 'sleeve' to protect it, and will be packaged well wrapped in a special albulm box.
