THE BEATLES
(PARLOPHONE / APPLE / WORLD RECORD CLUB - BOX SET OF 24 UK 7” SINGLES!)
ON OFFER HERE IS A SUPERB BOXED SET OF 24 UK 7” VINYL SINGLES BY THE BEATLES ON THE PARLOPHONE & APPLE RECORDS LABELS.
THIS FANTASTIC BOX SET IS COMPLETE WITH LEAFLET AND ORIGINAL WORLD RECORDS GUARANTEE SHEET!!
THIS 1976 BOX SET IS KNOWN AS THE BEATLES COLLECTION.
I HAVE PERSONALLY OWNED THIS RARE COLLECTION SINCE PURCHASE IN 1976 AND CAN THEREFORE VOUCH THAT ONLY CIRCA 20% OF THE SINGLES WERE PLAYED (AND THEN ONLY A MAXIMUM OF 2 TIMES) SO THE MAJORITY IN THIS BOXED SET ARE GENUINELY MINT IN THAT THEY HAVE NEVER EVEN BEEN PLAYED!!!
IN 1976 , EMI’S MAIL ORDER SUBSIDIARY, WORLD RECORDS RELEASED THE BOX SET ENTITLED THE BEATLES COLLECTION - THE BEATLES SINGLES 1962-1970,. THE SET WAS AVAILABLE BY MAIL ORDER ONLY, AND NOT THROUGH THE USUAL RETAIL OUTLETS.
SINGLES WERE PRESENTED IN GREEN PICTURE SLEEVES, WITH A PICTURE OF THE BEATLES ON THE OTHER SIDE.
THIS COLLECTION WAS HEAVILY ADVERTISED IN THE BRITISH PRESS. IN ADDITION, A MAILER WAS SENT TO WORLD RECORDS’ REGULAR CUSTOMERS, CONTAINING AN INFORMATIONAL BOOKLET.
THIS AUCTION IS FOR THE COMPLETE BOXED SET CONTAINING ALL 24 x 45s FROM THE BEATLES COLLECTION, PLUS THE FOLD-OUT INFORMATIONAL BOOKLET. THE INFORMATIONAL BOOKLET IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, WITH JUST SIGNS OF CAREFUL HANDLING.
THE TEXTURED BLACK BOX WITH HINGED LID AND EMBOSSED GOLD TITLES AND DECORATION IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH a slight wear mark on the reverse where the lid hinge opEns/closes but this is extremely slight.
ALL OF THESE STUNNING 45S ARE COMPLETE WITH THEIR ORIGINAL GREEN & WHITE FRONTED PICTURE SLEEVES.
