This is one of the nicest sets from my 78 record collection. Decca 4 record set No. 207 from 1946. The Quintet of the Hot Club of France featuring Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelly.
The records grade as N- on the VJM scale. They are like new. (glossy and no marks.) I had two of these sets and this was the one that did not get played. It was kept as a collectors item. See the VJM grading scale below please.
The cover is in excellent shape. The spine is perfect. Very mild edge-wear and a couple of scuffs. See Pics.
The booklet that came with this set has disappeared over the years, so I have adjusted the price accordingly.
Fantastic original Gypsy Jazz....Enjoy!

The VJM Record Grading System.

N (78) As new and unplayed (there are virtually no 78s that can categorically be claimed to be unplayed).

N- (78)  Nearly Mint, but has been played. No visible signs of wear or damage.

E+ (78)  Plays like new, with very, very few signs of handling, such as tiny scuffs from being slipped in and out of jackets.

E  (78)  Still very shiny, near new looking, with no visible signs of wear, but a few inaudible scuffs and scratches.

E- (78)  Still shiny but without the lustre of a new record, few light scratches.  LP: Some wear, scratches and scuffs, but no skipped or repeat grooves.

V+ (78)  V+ is an average condition 78 in which scuffs and general use has dulled the finish somewhat. Wear is moderate but playing is generally free from distortion. Surface noise not overly pronounced.

V (78)  Moderate, even wear throughout, but still very playable. Surface noise and scratches audible but not intrusive.

V- (78)  Quite playable still, but distortion and heavy greying in loud passages. Music remains loud in most passages. Surface noise and scratches well below music level.

G+ (78). Grey throughout but still serviceable. Music begins to sound muffled. Heavy scratches.

G (78). Quite seriously worn and scratched, but music level is still higher than surface noise.

G- (78). Music still prominent, but wear and scratch damage extensive.

F (78). Most of music remains audible over surface noise, but listening now uncomfortable.

P (78). Unplayable
