This is the Beatles EP’s Collection released in Japan in the early 1980s. This set includes all their original British EPs plus a bonus disc containing (at the time) never before heard stereo mixes of a four songs. These red Japanese records are known for their great sound quality and for having virtually no surface noise during playback.

The box itself is in great condition. No wear on the edges and the front flap has no sign of ripping like most of these usually do. The EP covers range from VG+-NM. A few of them have what appears to be discoloring on them, but it’s very minor. There are also a few that have a small seam split in the bottom center of the cover due to a poor shipping choose by the seller I originally imported these from.

The records themselves, however, are practically unplayed. I’ve played a few of them once or twice but for all intents and purposes, these records are near mint condition and sound excellent. The colored vinyl also makes this a fun and unique way of owning this collection. Each EP holds its vinyl record in a rice paper sleeve and each EP comes with a lyric sheet which contains the lyrics in both English and Japanese.

Here is a Google photo album that contains photos of each sleeve and record. I didn’t take pictures of the lyric sheets but they are all included:

I will ship in a way to ensure the records do not bounce around and cause damage to the box or to the covers. If you have any questions or would like some more photos, please don’t hesitate to ask. Thanks for looking! :)
