Offered here is the 1992 box set of 8 vinyl lp's of Bob Marley SONGS OF FREEDOM, complete in the unopened box with oversized booklet, four photo sleeves (each hold two lps in poly protectors), all in MINT condition.

It's in torn but complete shrink wrap, and again, never opened, never played.  No needle has touched these yet, completely guaranteed!

These LP's are JAMAICAN pressings, from Tuff Gong!

Most of the photos are from another open set of the same records I have.  The first two photos show what the outside of the box looks like (mine, without the shrink wrap, yours is better).  The next photos show a couple of the four sleeves.  The next two photos that look like they are the lp sleeves are actually shots of the excellent booklet front and back, then a photo of the inside of the booklet, then one of the albums in it's poly sleeve that they all have, followed lastly by the"emendations" to the booklet published in the Beat Magazine.  The original copy from the magazine is included with this otherwise perfect set making it even more complete.

This is the listing from a set I sold years ago:

========================================

Offered here is a rare, limited edition box set of SONGS OF FREEDOM by reggae soldier and revolutionary entertainer Bob Marley.  These are the 8 LP records, FAR more rare than the cd's.  Why ebay insists on listing these in "acceptable" condition when they are beyond mint is beyond me.  They are new and in the original shrink wrap, never having been heated up or otherwise damaged OR used in ANY way!

According to the online music price guide, the last one of these to be offered on ebay has this record:
  MPG ID : 251799
Ebay Item # : 160152926284
Selling price : USD 356.00
Bids : 22
End Auction date: 2007-09-12

I bought two of these when they came out, one for my reggae and Ethiopian archive, and one for listening purposes.  Instead, I never took either one our of the shrink wrap so this one available set is beyond excellent, it's still unopened.

Feel free to ask any questions.  I will ship these anywhere in the world so long as postage and handling are covered.  Keep in mind these EIGHT LP ALBUMS, THEIR LINERS, AND BOX ARE HEAVY ALREADY, BEFORE PACKING FOR THEIR SAFE JOURNEY TO YOU.  Please ignore ebay's media mail rates, as that is for one record or book, not a box set.  Shipping (domestic) is 11.00 media mail,  32.00 priority mail and 50-60 for most of Europe.

This set is rare and well worth it.  Who knows how many millions of the cd's of this same terrific set have been sold but these are the first pressing limited edition VINYL with all the WARMTH and ACCURACY that only comes from an honest to Jah record!

====================================

Please ask any questions you have before bidding.  

I've been on ebay over 15 years offering items (mostly books) on Ethiopia, Haile Selassie I, Reggae, Rastafari, Jamaica, Africa and the holy herb, marijuana.  I offer many good new and vintage books on these subjects, plus original and authentic orders of chivalry (such as I was uniquely awarded) , wearable medals, table medals (they look like coins but aren't meant for spending like money), and insignia of Imperial Ethiopia.  
Please check out my other auctions.
My feedback has been 100% positive for more years than I can remember,meaning that you can count on my descriptions to be accurate and my packing excellent, my shipping reliable.

New shipping costs are estimates for this beautiful and heavy box set of 8 lps plus booklet.  If you live in the USA and want it shipped media mail, I can arrange for that, priority is more, international is a lot more but worth it for these.

Blessings and RASpect!
