Overview
This listing if for a pre-owned copy of the Third Man Vault #33: Icky Thump X.
The vault set comes in its original box with all the original extras:
- Icky Thump 2xLP 180-gram vinyl, Gatefold  - White Stripes - Red Demos LP (2 of these came in my shipment, one in a sleeve and one without, so you get an extra) - 1 Icky Thump Extras LP - 1 8" x 8" 68pg 'Pictures from Icky' Picture Book - 1 Rob Jones 8"x10" Print - 1 Skeleton Horse enamel pin

Condition
Records
All 4 records (2 Icky Thump, 1 Icky Thump Extras, and 1 (technically 2) Red Demos) are in good physical condition. The white colored "Icky Thump Extras" record looks in the photo like it has some faint, dirty striations, but that is the color of the record itself. They just pressed with such a subtle black inclusion that it looks kinda weird agains the white. As for the sound, it sounds pretty good to me with some pops from dust.  I'm more of a collector than audiophile; so my ear for clean sound on vinyl may differ from an expert. For that reason, I've listed the grading of everything as Good. If it turns out to be very good for your taste, even better.
The record sleeves are paper with soft plastic film inners. The paper of the sleeves themselves has a some bending from normal use, taking them out and putting them back in the covers.
The album covers are in good condition with some minor scratches, again from normal use. There is a small tear on the top edge of the front gatefold cover for the gatefold Icky Thump records. You can see this in the photos.
I'm shipping the gatefold and its 2xLP in one protective poly sleeve, and the other records in a separate poly sleeve, since they all fit in one pretty comfortably.
Extras
The Rob Jones Print (the twin-lens reflex image with the skulls in the lenses), the picture book, and the enamel pin are all in good condition with very light use.
Box
The box that houses it all has the heaviest wear. You can see in the photos it has some small, white abrasions near the corners, and the paper of the surface is bubbling up a little bit throughout. Nothing too crazy, but worth noting.


Icky is my favorite White Stripes studio album. And this collection really does it justice. But alas, we are downsizing. So my loss of square-footage for box sets is your gain!
Let me know if you have any questions.
Cheers!
