This rare and highly sought-after set of 78 RPM records features Judy Garland's unforgettable performance in The Wizard of Oz. Released by Decca in 1947, these records are a must-have for any serious collector of vintage vinyl. The set includes four 10" records made of shellac, all of which are in extremely great condition.  I don't see any scratches. If there are, they are so faint I can't see them.


The album is a second release and comes in the original colored album sleeve with 4 slots.  I've included lots of pictures.   Songs on record 1- Somewhere Over the Rainbow & Jitterbug, record 2 - Munchkin Land part 1 (Ding Dong the Witch is Dead) & Munchkin Land part 2, record 3 - If I Only had a Brain & If I Only had a Heart,  record 4 - The Merry Old Land of Oz & We're Off to See the Wizard.


This set features Judy Garland & Victor Young and his orchestra with the Ken Darby Singers. Made by Decca Records and is Album #A-558.


Cover is a little discolored along the top, a little worn at the corners and a light scuff across the Decca Records name at the bottom.  All in all, it's a very great example for its 77 years of age!
