DANIEL BARENBOIM “Great Conductors Signature Ed.” 5-LP limited ed. autographed ‘83

A signed collector's edition set of 5 vinyl discs in a bound leather case produced by the Franklin Mint in the early 80s. This is actually hand signed by world renowned composer

 DANIEL BARENBOIM

Consists of five discs, pressed on gorgeous, unique cranberry red vinyl by the renowned Deutsche Gramophone label from Germany.  Also includes an 8-page booklet with detailed liner notes and photographs, bound into the presentation case.  A lovely limited-edition set.

Background:  We obtained a total of 13 sets from this series (I believe a total of 15 were produced in all) from a local estate.  It is obvious they were played sparingly (likely only one time) and then stored away. 

Condition:  The records in this set are all gorgeous NEAR MINT with no discernible flaws.

There is a minimal bit of light spotting on the booklet pages which occurred in storage.  It is not extensive, but should be noted, as it does detract slightly from the appearance of several of the pages.  Please see the photos. 

(The records were fully protected in their poly-lined sleeves, and thus are not affected in any way.)
