Released with much anticipation in early October 1982, The Collection was lauded by critics and Beatles fans worldwide for the superb sound, and sold-out completely within the first year. Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (MFSL) pressed a second run of the Beatles Boxed Set for a total production run of 25,000 over the next two years or until October 1985.[2]
Each album was pressed on black vinyl by the Victor Company of Japan. The album covers were replaced with photographs of tape boxes and log sheet. The original album covers were included in a booklet which also featured a certificate of authenticity as this was a limited edition collection.
According to a page in the book included with the set, this is #3,799 from a limited edition run.
If you inspect the photos, you'll see that the box shows evidence of normal usage and wear but the inner jackets and sleeves are pristine.
If you're a fan of vintage vinyl, you know that Mobile Fidelity is the gold standard. Albums were pressed using the original master tapes and superior quality vinyl.
The box will be thoroughly swaddles in bubble wrap.
