Please ask questions BEFORE bidding as all sales are FINAL. I have checked all my record listings for playability!

I think my father bought this then died without ever having played it. The records are nearly untouched but the sleeves have gone yellow. The cover has a little splitting at the corners.

The cover is nice with gold foil embossing.
