The records were manufactured at two different Ukrainian record factories. Each record is in its original paper sleeve.
The records are in excellent condition, showing no significant wear. Note that playback has not been tested as we do not have a record player. The labels are clear and legible, and so is all the printed text on the sleeves. The sleeves show moderate wear: creasing, fraying to the edges, even areas of separation where glue had dried and did not hold the sides of the sleeve together. If desired, all the wear can be minimized with patience, a bit of glue, and a warm iron.
