The Beatles Blue Box Complete Collection BC13

$

223

Collection is in near mint condition. Spent almost its entire life sitting unused in Mom's storage. Just want to see it go to a good home where someone with a record player will actually put it to good use. You can see from the photos that the box itself has some wear, but otherwise all the sleeves and records are looking mint. If I was buying this brand new from a record store in the 70's I wouldn't question the condition, even the corners of all the sleeves are still pristine. Don't have a record player myself, so can't put these to use. Hope the winning bidder enjoys them.
If you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer them, but my knowledge is unfortunately limited. Selling many other records from this same lot, so see my other postings of stored records, many of which are still in plastic wrap, though all are opened and have been played.
We'll do free standard shipping on this one, if you want special wrapping or shipping we can negotiate a price.

So I have had a few questions messaged that I want to answer. Unfortunately eBay isn't letting me delete any posted photos to put more on, but I've confirmed that the records are manufactured in the U.K. and one envelope in the white album was made in western Germany, for some reason the others are all Great Britain made. There is what appears to be a poster in the white album with 2 LP's and it is in absolutely mint condition. There is also a cardboard insert in Sgt. Peppers that has "cut-outs" on it, also mint and never touched. There is only one album that shows some use, the "Rubber Soul" album sleeve shows the indentations around the record, but the condition is still great, and the record itself is mint. It was the only album out of the box in storage, so my Mother must have actually listened to that one a few times.

I've inspected the records more thoroughly and there is a blemish on Sgt. Pepper's that might cause an issue around what I'm guessing would be track 4 "Good Morning Good Morning" but without an actual record player I can't test it. There are also a few scratches on the White Album Side 2, but they look more like visual blemishes, I really don't think they will effect the playing quality, you can barely see them unless held in the correct light and angle. I'm making no attempt to clean or repair any blemishes or scratches as I have no working knowledge of records and don't want to ruin them.
