and also the libretto booklet containing the line by line German/English translation.
CONDITION:
DISCS:EX to Near Mint.
Visually all 3 discs look to have been barely played.
(It is quite possible that this is quite standard and normal, but would like to note that disc 2427, which is factory blanked out on 1 side, 1 sides disc and seems to be very slightly convex towards the playing side, it is quite possible that this is how the disc was made, as it has been manufactured differently to the normal 2 sided discs and has raised "Columbia" logos on the reverse and not grooved music).
All the records play extremely well, with some general light background, that is more prounced in some parts and very minimal in others and some very occasional light ticking.
THE BOX : EX+ a very nice and sound box with no major faults.
BLUE LIBRETTO CARD: Near Mint.
Very crisp and clean with nothing to fault.
LIBRETTO BOOKLET.EX+ to near MINT. This booklet is virtually near mint, with just some inteligent, light pencil notes, (easily removed, but useful) indicatiting I think (I'm not completely sure), what side of the record a certain act starts on.
INNER SLEEVES: EX minus. These are in reasonably crisp and clean condition, but downgraded as someone has written "STEREO DISK" neatly but quite noticably, in the top right hand corner, in red felt tip pen, on both sides of all 3 sleeves..
