THE BEATLES SINGLES COLLECTION - SET OF 24 - 7" VINYL SINGLES - UNPLAYED

As a vinyl fanatic, collecting since 1970, I have acquired some 11,000 records and only rarely resorted to selling them. But I recently opened up some boxes I filled and sealed before I joined the navy in 1976 as part of the on-going cataloguing of some 9,000 singles and EPs.

In short, these were obtained from a Newcastle-upon-Tyne record store which had the singles in a cabinet display. The outer box was lost and when the visual promotion of the commemorative re-issues ended, I was given a heads-up by a family member who managed the store and I did, in fact, buy them for probably not a great deal of money.

They have never seen a record turntable, so I am more than happy to call them mint.

The sleeves are bright and crisp, and do NOT have the usual circular scuffing associated with the label traction rings, where tightly racked-together singles have damaged eachother. There is superficial edge rubbing, but that's all. There are simply no issues here for the discerning collector.

There are 5 repeat copies which I will put in as used freebies. These are marked on the list by an asterisk.
