Description
Thank you for viewing my auction.
IMPORTANT: I will accept a return (please contact me first) if within 48 hours of delivery. That time frame will give you plenty of time to examine the item and, if necessary, to sleep on your decision. Before your bid, I hope you will have asked me questions and asked for more photos if you have concerns about this item.
I purchased this factory-sealed slipcase set in the mid-1990s. It has been in storage, since that time, in a non-smoking home, protected in a box, and safely inside a closet that receives no direct sunlight. What you see in the photos is how I bought it.
This is indeed a factory-sealed 5 x LP slipcase set; it is not a re-seal. You can easily see two breath holes: one breath hole - front, lower left quadrant and one breath hole - rear, lower right quadrant. I am unaware (and I have never seen) this item factory-sealed in a loose perforation-tear baggy.
NOTE: However, there is no limited-edition sticker attached to the factory-sealed shrink wrap or factory issued slipcase; I do not see any sticker glue residue anywhere on the slipcase or shrink-wrap. I do not know why the sticker is missing.
I do not know how to interpret that missing sticker. I have no reason to believe the slipcase set is counterfeit. I am unaware MFSL released any Woodstock 5 x LP slipcase sets (without stickers) late in the release run. Could it be an error issue or a cut-out issue? If you have a verified answer, I will update this description.
There is damage to the shrink wrap, especially to the back side shrink wrap. The back side shrink-wrap was taped at one time - and not a very good job at that. You will see other scuffs and small tears on the four sides (Photos 7 - 10). That is why I grade this shrink wrap VG.
The factory-sealed slipcase has numerous scuffs; and no cuts, no creases, no dings, not faded, one hole, no seam-splits, no stains, no tears, no writing. That is why I grade this slipcase VG.
All contents are contained in a sturdy paper stock factory-sealed slipcase.
All contents inside are presumed to be mint (M).
All contents inside are accurately recreated (facsimile) from the original vinyl LPs: album covers, artwork, liner notes and photos.
All photos taken with a smart phone at 12.0 megapixel power. Any shiny areas you see on these 10 photos are reflections only.
Photo 1 allows you to see the condition of the factory-seal and the slipcase (front). Notice the breath-hole at the lower left quadrant.
This first photo also shows you two self-written adhesive stickers (already applied by the seller, when I bought this item). The stickers are adhered to the shrink wrap.
Photo 2 has a closer view of the breath-hole (front, lower left quadrant).
Photo 3 allows you to see the condition of the factory-seal and the slipcase (back). Notice the breath-hole at the lower right quadrant; the "damage" to the shrink wrap (at the non-opening side); and that unusual black hole (size: 1/8th inch length). I purchased this factory sealed slipcase with the hole already there.
Photo 4 has a closer view of the breath-hole (back, lower right quadrant).
Photo 5 has a closer view of the "damage" to the shrink wrap (at the non-opening side).
Photo 6 has a closer view of that unusual black hole.
I don't know what caused this black hole (it is only black in the photo because no light is shining directly into it). It could be a "cut-out" hole. I very carefully inserted a pin into the hole and it stopped at (I suspect) the cover of the first album. The depth of the hole is 3/8th inch, at an angle to the flat surface.
Photos 7 - 10 allows you to see the condition of the factory-seal shrink wrap and /slipcase sides (all four); starting with the spine and viewing in a counter-clockwise direction. When viewing each of these photos, you will be viewing from the back toward the front of the slipcase.
