Box hinge and all sides/corners completely intact with no splits.

BARFKO-SWILL merchandise/promotion Insert and all inner sleeves are in EXCELLENT condition with no splits, tears, soil or other marks.

Records are now inside separate anti-static lined inner sleeves - to protect both the Vinyl and the original inners.

***NOTE, unless you ask otherwise, the vinyl (within the protective anti-static sleeves) will ship INSIDE the box, snugly with inserts.
That is by far the smartest and safest way to pack this. I know how to pack LPs; in fact this will ship
DOUBLE-BOXED to further protect all edges and corners of this great set.

Box Set kept in a protective, oversize poly outer-sleeve.

___________________________________________________
Beginning to unfold an utterly vast melded record collection, ferreting out the duplicates and passing them on. My life-long best friend, who was a DJ at the Radio Station I co-founded in the 1970's - and who worked for me at my California record store in the '70s and '80s -  has now finally left this mortal coil, bequeathing me his deep Vinyl Mine. .Several thousand records (mostly LP's, but also many 45's), several hundred collectible and Rare, Out of Print CDs and Box Sets, plus posters and other memorabilia - most of which will all become available as I move through the collection.

Always collecting everything he could - with strong tastes in rare Psych, worldwide Prog, Electronic, Space Rock, Classic '60s Rock, innovative Hard Rock, UK Blues Rock, Glam, Odd sounds, all things Tolkien and Disney, Hawaiian Slack Key and more.

We had very similar tastes - so numerous prime duplicates are emerging now. Many PROMOS, IMPORTS and 1st PRESSINGS will be included - indeed some still sealed.

Following soon, I will begin listing the LP's first, mostly at auction, with low opening bids - starting with the Prog, Electronic and Space Rock, then the Psych and on from there. You WON'T want to miss those!! (it may take me several weeks (months?) to list them all... still only part-way through opening all the LP boxes - checking Pressing, Edition and condition (most so far are VG++ to NM). It's all coming soon... .

Following the LP's will be either the CDs or the 45's next - and then ultimately the posters and other paper. Truly a great (and enormous) collection!

after thousands of miles, many days spent gathering it all and several thousand dollars spent flying out to California and trucking it all back to my new home, the tip of the iceberg now emerges - a few choice pieces off the top, listed at set price to recoup some expenses now. I'm not yet near ready for the full-scale auctions that are planned to begin soon.

...still going through so many boxes, the process continues. It may be a while until I can organize my 1st auction series of at least 100 LP auctions at one time, but mark/save this listing eBay ID and check back.

Diligent collectors WILL be rewarded!
