When I found these two colorful and interesting picture sleeves, clearly Chinese propaganda records during the time of Mao Tse-Tung, I didn't study the records carefully enough to realize that the records did not match the jackets.  WORTH THE PRICE ALONE FOR THE JACKETS, in my opinion, but in any case, here are the sleeves and records of this listing:
The Party Leads Us To Victory, produced by China Record Company, M-2042.  The thick paper sleeve has light to moderate edge and corner wear, split center of spine about 2", light ring front and back, no marks.  The record found inside the sleeve is M-983, which I found from another listing to be, Chairman Mao Is The Red Sun In The Hearts Of The People.  This record does have light scratches on both sides, quite possibly playable, I would grade in the range of G to VG.
Peking Opera Taking the Bandits' Stronghold, produced by China Record Company.  Interestingly, the number on this sleeve is M-835, but the same record on discogs has the number M-828 on its sleeve.  The record itself of this listing has the number M-828, and the Chinese characters on this record match the characters on the sleeve.  So this one does appear to be a match.  The bad news is that the record is in very poor condition.  Side 1 may be playable but there are several scratches and I would grade this side as Fair.  Side 2 is simply not playable as it is full of deep feelable scratches - this side was carved on, almost literally.  The jacket has moderate to heavy edge and corner wear, no splits or marks.

SO A CURIOUS SET WITH COLORFUL JACKETS, WORTH THE PRICE JUST FOR THE ART OF THE JACKETS.
