Every record is safely tucked inside its original protective sleeve.  Most, not all, of the albums contain the original literature that came with the album. These albums contain a wide variety of music by the most popular recording artists at the time, music that was and remains loved by all and, in my view, of the highest quality available: Music truly made for listening pleasure.  Admittedly, they could serve as works of art, for decorative purposes, in your home library, office and/or designated music room.  Some city libraries display them and make them available for public play.  When displayed on wall shelving with other objects of music, they are striking indeed.  The 110 albums, when standing upright, span approx. 12 linear feet (about 3.6 m).  The record albums are about 13in high and 13in wide.  They weigh approx 425# (194k) w/o packing.   CONDITION: The records:  The buyer should assume all of the records have been played even though many have not.  Most of the records show negligible use and have high fidelity (faithful reproduction of sound).  I have always stored them upright and in dry and safe areas of our homes; therefore, they are not warped, maintain their shape and do not smell musty, as often noted on these old record albums.  None are cracked, chipped or warped. The album covers: Most of the covers show little or negligible use.  Some have nicked corners or blemish, but, overall, they are in pretty good condition.  The sleeves:  All records are in their original sleeves which show little or no use.   COMMENTS: It is time for me to dispose of some of my personal things.  This has been my library of sound which I believe to be   distinctive---enjoyable---historical---memorable---colorful.  Truly, an unparalleled American collector’s item. ***I reserve the right to cancel my auction at any time.   1.        All-Star Piano Magic.         2.    All-Time Broadway Hit Parade.                                       3.     Arthur Fiedler & the Boston Pops Play Hits of the 60’s 70’s  (2).                                                                                                             4.        Auld Lang Syne 5.        A Wonderland of the Worlds Most Beautiful   Music. 6.        Background Moods. 7.        Be My Love. 8.        Best Loved Inspirational Music. 9.        Bing Sings—96 of his greatest hits. 10.     Champagne Music Varieties-Lawrence Welk. 11.     Cocktail Piano Time. 12.     Concert in the Park. 13.     Concert Under the Stars. 14.     Dance Party. 15.     Down Memory Lane.
