The First Ten Years - 1980 - 1990

Follow this link to see full track listing and more info on Wikipedia if you are not familiar with the set - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_First_Ten_Years
CONDITION - Box: Good (general wear & tear) - Sleeves: Mint* - Vinyl: Mint (never played)
*The Wasted Years sleeve has a slight crease on it's top edge which probably occurred in the record shop (Jumbo Records in Leeds if you are interested) and would have been invisible through cellophane because I remember painstakingly checking them when I bought them
**************
This is my limited edition box set that features 20 NEVER PLAYED 12" singles. All up there's 63 tracks - a mixture of live and studio.
Each record comes in a gatefold picture sleeve featuring the original artwork and each has a "Limited Edition" sticker with release number "IRN 1 to 10 and full track listing" for each release.
Each gatefold sleeve contains two 12" singles, complete with original B sides and artwork, as well as an edition of "Listen with Nicko", a spoken-word track in which drummer Nicko McBrain would recount the history behind each song specific to that release.
As Wikipedia says "Each part in the series included a special voucher, all ten of which could be exchanged by mail order for a limited edition storage box." - I bought the records as they were released, one or two every bloomin' week and then sent away for the box that duly appeared within the obligatory 28 days. I bought them as a collector and now I'm emigrating and can't take my vinyl with me.
They come in a 12¾" x 12¾" x 3" picture box which has some scuffing and and general storage wear because I have moved house with this set several times but the records are in mint condition. I have owned them from new and have never played any of them, ever!!!!
I've seen these advertised on Ebay over the years for anything up to £500, I have never seen an unplayed set like mine though.
Good luck and Happy Bidding!
