ALL THE RECORDS APPEAR TO BE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, AND ARE DOUBLE PROTECTED IN THICK WHITE SLEEVES, WHICH ALL HAVE NICE RICE PAPER FILLERS. THEY ARE VERY SHINY, WITH NO WARPING OR SCRATCHES VISIBLE.
THE SCORE VOLUMES ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO WRITING OR TEARS. THEY APPEAR TO HAVE REMAINED UNUSED AS THEY SIT VERY FLAT WHEN CLOSED. THERE IS A SMALL FLAW ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT OF THE COVER OF VOLUME ONE (SEE PIC).
