After that long list of works and performers, the true value of this set lies in the six album covers, which feature six drawings by Pablo Picasso. I quote from a more informed source: "In the 1950s Eleanore and Daniel Saidenberg owned The Saidenberg Gallery on East 77th Street in New York City. They were trusted friends of Pablo Picasso, leading collectors of his work and in 1954 became his American representatives. In 1955 they held the Exhibition A Selection of 55 Drawings by Pablo Picasso. In 1959, Daniel's The Saidenberg Little Orchestra made Classical Recordings sleeved in Jackets of Full-size Prints of Picasso Drawings." This is a rare set, and it's very hard to find all six LPs together in their original box. Vinyl VG++. Box VG+, seam wear to lid flaps. Inner jackets with Picasso artwork NM, in beautiful condition. I have included both photos of the full covers, and scans which show the detail better.

LATE NOTE:

There is a question from a user posted below to which I gave a completely mistaken answer, thinking he was talking about a different set of records. Please ignore my reply! Here's the correct response to the question below: "These are all single sleeves, not gatefold. I "joined" some images so that I could include as many pictures as I wanted, which may be where the impression of gatefold covers comes from. The album sleeves are not split along the edges, if you talking about seam splits -- there is no seam wear at all. The damage to the flaps of the box is that each of the corners is split on the box lid. The box bottom is perfectly intact. And yes, the pictures are of the actual item."

Condition Notes:
Records are generally graded on visual inspection.
Mint: A brand new, SEALED record, never played.
NM: Near Mint. An unsealed record that looks as good as new.
VG++: Excellent. Light cosmetic flaws that should not affect the sound.
VG+: May have cosmetic flaws, mild surface noise or short patches of ticking, but should sound fine overall.
VG: May have moderate noise throughout or one or two bad patches from scratches. Still fine for general listening.
Good: Noisy, but plays through. I will only sell very rare or unusual items in this condition.
Please contact me for a refund if a record plays worse than described.
