Have confidence, I'm selling my own personal vinyl collection. Most of my LP's
remain unplayed and first pressings. I used to collect vinyl as I worked in a record
shop and have hundreds of rare records.
Please read the vinyl and sleeve grading below and also look at my feedback.

Here we have my own ultra rare, original, first A1/B1 pressings of The Shadows -
The Shadows Collection.
It is a  Box Set of 8 x 12" LP's, 33⅓ rpm with a solid centre. Published 1992 on the
Readers Digest Record Label, Cat No GSHAD-A-219.
Ref Discogs - All 8 LP's have A1/B1 on their runouts making this box set a first UK
Readers Digest Pressing. If you think this is not a first pressing, then either do
buy or buy in the knowledge that you think it is not!
The vinyl has never been out of their sleeves, has never been played and so is in Mint condition. The box has never been opened before, until now and only to photograph the items for listing. The inner white sleeves are in Mint condition. The accompanying
colour booklet is in Mint condition. The original outer box housing the vinyl has
minimal top box section, lower edge colour loss from storage and left edge minor creasing - see pics - I have graded it as Excellent.
Please read the grading system below and take note of the condition comments
above!
Has to be the best available here!

See pic's for playlist.
This has been stored in my own LP Library!

From a smoke & pet free home!
