"GIANTS OF JAZZ"
Complete Set of 28 x 3-LP Box Sets
- Estate Fresh - Great Condition - Sold With No Reserves - This amazing jazz record collection comes to you estate fresh from an old northern New Jersey home we recently liquidated.
You're getting the complete series - all twenty-eight box sets from the much sought after series "Time-Life: Giants of Jazz". This landmark jazz set was published by Time Life circa 1980/1981. Quality pressed by Columbia, each LP is in a plastic-lined inner sleeve. Each box-set contains three (3) LP's, 8" by 8" litho print (suitable for framing) and a 48-page booklet containing information/photos about each box's artist that will blow your mind they're so detailed.
The artists are as follows:
- Louis Armstrong
- Duke Ellington
- Billie Holiday
- Bix Beiderbecke
- Benny Goodman
- Coleman Hawkins
- Jelly Roll Morton
- Jack Teagarden
- Sidney Bechet
- Benny Carter
- Earl Hines
- "The Guitarists"
- Lester Young
- Red Norvo
- Fats Waller
- Henry Red Allen
- Pee Wee Russell
- James P. Johnson
- Johnny Hodges
- Teddy Wilson
- Ben Webster
- Count Basie
- Frank Teschemacher
- Art Tatum
- Bunny Berigan
- Johnny Dodds
- Joe Sullivan
- Bessie Smith
Overall real real nice condition. Alot of the LPs contained within are pretty Mint (as in a whole bunch look like they've never even touched a turntable). Boxes are really nice w/ minimal shelf-wear and perhaps a tiny corner dent here and there. The exception is Fats Waller which has some box denting (see image below).
Don't spin your wheels trying to get these scarce box sets one by one - here's your chance to get the complete collection in one shot (think of the money you'll save on shipping alone)! Please note that I'm going to ship these in either two or three separate boxes 'cuz this lot is REALLY HEAVY (like 70 pounds of records heavy!). This is for the sake of the records/boxes and your postal carrier's back.
Don't lose out by being the victim of a last minute snipe bid - place your top bid now to assure your purchase of this wonderful lot. As with many of our eBay items, this lot is sold with no reserves! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
- Successful high bidder pays high bid amount plus $42.00 for the cost of secure 'media mail' shipping w/ delivery confirmation to USA (remember the whole bundle is like 70 pounds). Overseas? Ask first (but it's gonna cost ALOT!).
- INSURANCE IS MANDATORY IF YOUR PURCHASE TOTALS $25.00 OR MORE, otherwise optional if less. HOWEVER, WE ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE TO ITEM IF BUYER DECLINES INSURANCE OPTION (now go back and read this sentence again).
