This is the jewel of my collection: the original Pink Floyd 1st XI Box Set of
1000 copies only. UK Harvest PF 11 1979. This box set contains the first 11 releases on LP
from Piper At The Gates to Animals however, when it was originally obtained the
editions of both Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here were not the
picture disc editions.
The original black box with Dark Side Of The Moon motif around it differs totally from the later releases with a similar name. The box itself is in very good condition apart from some very light scuffs to the boxes edges & faint three & a half inch scratch on the back plus two slight scuffs. Saying that this entire box set is in very good verging on excellent condition throughout considering it's apparently 36 years old (I obtained mine as a present in 1983).
I'm only selling this treasured item as I've been
a carer for eight years & have found myself in financial difficulty's following
my Mum going into a nursing home. Hence the highly competetive starting price!!
