Media Condition: Near Mint (NM or M-)

Sleeve Condition: Near Mint (NM or M-)

Beautiful, glossy vinyl on all discs. Box is totally clean and unscuffed, hinge intact, with NM booklet.

 

Notes:

Hard cardboard box including 5 LP's and a 20 pages booklet.
Edition of 7,500 copies.
The earliest sets of this release sold were not hand-numbered, as the space for it had been eliminated (see pic). Evidently customer demand caused the label to start numbering box sets once more, though none of the booklets for this LP set have a designated space for a limited edition number.

"MASTERED BY EMI/A" stamped, rest of runouts etched.
