Various – The Magical World Of Operetta (Classical Soundtrack 6x CD Box Set)

Very good UK fatbox issue but for the cracked case and scuffs to discs 1 and 2.

Anthology boxset released by Reader's Digest.

Condition

DISCS: G/G+/EX/EX/NM/NM. Look superbly clean on visual inspection. Most stored and handled well. Lots of faint hairline scuffs and marks on discs 1 and 2 and mainly in clusters in one area – but no deep scratches. One or two marks on discs 3 and 4. Discs 5 and 6 are clean and unmarked. Played just pre-listing and play through fine. Discs clamp firmly in sprockets.
BOOKLET: EX. Colours remain vibrant and unfaded on superb thick gloss stapled book. No dents, rips or stains. Just a few nicks to some corners and edges and creases to covers. A superb example. Also includes the separate ‘how to use your use your handy 6-CD box set’ booklet.
JEWEL CASE: G+. A few mild scuffs and hairline marks through light handling but one large crack on back. Fatbox jewel case with dark grey inner flip-trays.
