IRON MAIDEN

"THE FIRST TEN YEARS"
RARE VINYL EP BOX-SET

The First Ten Years is a series of 10 double 12" singles released between February 24 and April 28, 1990 to commemorate Iron Maiden's first ten years of releasing singles.

Each double 12" contains two of Iron Maiden's 20 singles that were released between 1980 and 1990 and includes the b-sides.
In addition, each record contains a bonus track, a part in the "Listen with Nicko" series, in which drummer Nicko McBrain tells about the songs on the discs.

List of volumes and EP titles.
Volume 1: Running Free & Sanctuary
Volume 2: Women In Uniform & Twilight Zone
Volume 3: Purgatory & Maiden Japan
Volume 4: Run To The Hills & The Number Of The Beast
Volume 5: Flight Of Icarus & The Trooper
Volume 6: Two Minutes To Midnight & Aces High
Volume 7: Running Free & Run To The Hills
Volume 8: Wasted Years & Stranger In A Strange Land
Volume 9: Can I Play With Madness & The Evil That Men Do
Volume 10: The Clairvoyant & Infinite Dreams

Condition:
Box: Pretty Good given its age – has been stored carefully so just the usual scuffs.
EP covers: All Mint condition
Records: All are clean and shiny but (Important!) have at least one mark on them. This is courtesy of an annoyed ex girlfriend who decided to trash my record collection but, from what I recall (I no longer have a record player), all discs are playable. Due to this i've started with a low reserve of 99p!!!

Collectability:
Whilst reviewing the collection one thing I did notice is that Volume 5 (Flight of Icarus/The Trooper) actually has a completely blank label on both sides of the Trooper disc. I must confess I’ve never noticed this before but having done a bit of googling it seems that this was not the norm and so perhaps this is unique as far as this boxed set is concerned?
Please see picture for details.

Postage:
Item can be collected in person or posted if required.

Please note that postage is NOT free but will be charged at cost once delivery address is known (Likely to be in the region of £12 for UK due to the weight)

I just wanted to stress again that all records in this box set are marked/scratched so if you're looking for audio quality, this is not the boxed set for you. However, if you're after a good quality box and covers then feel free to bid.
