The vinyl is near mint and was likely unplayed before I made a digital transfer of it. It's almost completely crackle-free with the only audible fault being some distortion on sibilant "S" sounds during Muro's narration. There is a slight warp in the vinyl which does not affect tracking on my fairly sensitive setup (an Esoteric Sound / ATEN II turntable without anti-skate, tracked at 1.5g).
The filmstrip is complete (114 frames) and intact in its original plastic canister but has a reddish hue throughout. The outside of the box is intact but worn with some pen marks, scuffing, and a tear to one of the corners. 32 pre-test and post-test sheets are included in the original shrink wrap. A teacher's guide is known to have been included when this set was issued, but it's missing from this copy.
A 96kHz 24-bit recording of what I presume to be the first and (so far) only playback of this vinyl can be included on a flash drive and/or CDs, or can be sent to the winning bidder as a Dropbox link. I will not be sending those files to anyone but the winning bidder, so please don't ask.
This album and filmstrip set has been in my possession for about 25 years and has been carefully stored in a smoke-free and pet-free environment during that time.
The contents will be safely and securely packaged in a new 16x16x10 box with an abundance of bubble wrap to ensure everything arrives as safely as possible. US addresses only, please!
I don't sell very often on eBay. This will be my only listing until it sells so that I can be attentive to whatever questions may come up while it's on offer. Thanks for looking, and good luck with the bidding!
