                                  Folk Song America-6 LP Box Set~Bob Dylan Pete Seeger Byrds Joan Baez Phil Ochs!        This listing is for the 6 record vinyl record  box set from almost all the top folk artists, titled,  Folk Song America A 20th Century Revival. It was released in 1990. (Smithsonian Collection Records R046~Original U.S. First Pressing).  The vinyl is very clean and shiny and grades either Near Mint with no scratches or marks or VG++, with a couple of very light scratches, on all 12 sides.  All the records play great.  The box looks good, but grades only VG due to light cover wear on the front and cover wear on the back; plus 2 splits as shown in picture 4.  The box set comes complete with the 110 page book which has lots of great info and pictures.  It is in Near Mint condition. For shipping, this listing is for U.S. buyers only.  I offer a $4.95 flat fee shipping charge, which means buyers can win as many records as I have running for the flat fee of $4.95.    SONGS: The 12 records combine for a ton of great music with exactly 100 songs!  In the last picture I took a close up of the back of the box to show all the artists and songs.  Included are songs by artists such as Bob Dylan, Pete Seeger, The Byrds, Joan Baez, Phil Ochs, Paul Ropbeson, Carl Sandburg, Leadbelly, Woody Guthrie, Josh White, The Weavers, Oscar Brand, The Tarriers, Bill Bronzy, Ed McCurdy, Odetta, Jean Ritchie, Kingston Trio, Limeliters, Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs, Peggy Seeger, Mississippi John Hurt, Tom Rush, Tom Paxson, Doc Watson, Ian And Sylvia, Simon & Garfunkle, Buffy Sainte Marie, Judy Collins, Canned Heat, Maria Muldhaur, Steve Goodman, Peter Paul and Mary and many more.  That's the records, good luck bidding!  CONDITION: Records: All 12 sides are either Near Mint or VG++, with most NM  :::  Box:  VG For packing I use a professionally made vinyl record box and 2 extra cardboard filler pads that surround the record for added protection.  This adds to the weight but provides much better protection than just the box. Please note that all of my records are original U.S. first pressings; unless noted differently; where I give the label name and number.  For grading I use a bright light to inspect each record for any possible scratches or marks. I also play parts of every record, but it is impossible to listen to all the records in full.  Any problems and I'm easy to work with. Please note that New York State buyers must add 8% sales tax to their winning bid price.  Many other states also charge sales tax now so check with Ebay if your state charges sales tax; since it's ebay who collects the sales tax.    Here's the grading scale that I use.  RECORD GRADING SEALED: Still brand new and factory sealed MINT: The record will not be sealed, but it will be perfect and still look brand new and unplayed.  NEAR MINT: The record will be very clean and shiny, with no scratches or marks and it will play great. VG++: The record will very clean and shiny, with just a couple of very light scratches or very light marks, that will not affect the play. The record will play very well. VG+: The record will be shiny with some light scratches. The record will play well, with either no background noise; or with just a bit of light background noise. Usually the light background noise would be on quieter parts or at the start or end of a song VG: The record will probably have lost some shine and it will have some scratches or scuffs. The record will play with some background noise on parts, but it won't skip and will be enjoyable G+: The record will have more scratches and marks than VG and will play with more background noise. It won't skip but will play with noticeable background noise on parts G or Fair: The record will play worse than G+, but also should not skip. I don't sell many records graded G+, G or fair. I usually only list G+, G or fair graded vinyl when it's a very rare record JACKET GRADING SEALED: Still factory sealed NEAR MINT: The jacket will have no flaws. It will have no corner wear, no cover wear/ring wear, no writing, no seam splits and no cut outs, drill holes or cut corners. The jacket might or might not be in shrink wrap. VG++: The jacket will be just a notch under near mint with 1 or 2 very minor flaws. Perhaps a bit of corner wear or just a bit of very light cover wear or very light ring wear. VG+: The jacket will be in nice shape, with some corner wear and maybe some light cover wear or light ring wear. VG: The jacket will have more noticeable flaws with heavier cover wear or ring wear, plus maybe a small seam split in the 3 or 4 inch range and maybe a name written in small letters near a corner.  G+: The jacket will have even more flaws with maybe a crease, some surface scrapes, more writing and larger seam splits; with heavier cover wear G: Even worse than G+ but still useable  fair: Many flaws and only used for very rare records or if the actual vinyl grade is VG+ or better Please check my feedback and bid with confidence! Thanx a lot for your time and interest! Rich(Inflationbeaters2)
