Inner Sleeves: All totally intact except Animals which has a one inch slit.
NOTES: AN EXTREMELY RARE LIMITED EDITION BOX SET WITH ONLY 1,000 MADE. It is an eleven album box set with 12 lp's. The box is black felt with silver foil prism on front and back. It is embossed in silver on the inside of the box top that says "Made In Italy by C/E". The banner that lists the titles in the set is gone. The grade of the box itself is EX as it has light light corner and edge wear. The black felt used in manufacture is susceptible to wear. The albums (except for Dark Side of the Moon) were not factory sealed which also made them susceptible to wear. They have not been played but they have been looked at. Any scuffs and hairline scratches are noted and were likely caused by the paper sleeve as the vinyl was taken in and out. That being said, many of the covers and LP's look MINT.
The LP's in the photographs and the photo of the box is what you will receive.
Thank you for your consideration. Below are the albums with tracklist and cover and LP grades:
