Beatles: Help ?

I own (just found it in deep storage) a boxed set of Toshiba EMI Beatle albums. 12 to be exact. The box is entirely in Japanese. Each album has cellophane sleeves for the records. The box is blue 3/4 quarters of the way up in the front with a white flip cover at the top. All lettering on the top is in Japanese. EMI is printed on the individual albums, as well as Apple on many of them. The back of the box is entirely blue. I purchased this baby in 1978ish? 'twas expensive at the time, but I can't, for the life of me, remember where and how much I

paid for it. Was purchased at a Hi End audio store. Anybody have a clue what I have? All the albums have not been played. A stylus has never touched them. thanks in advance.

Albert, when I read your first reply, I was think, "God. I hope he comes abck and sets him straight quickly before he gives them away or something". OK, I was actually thinking of bumping the offer to $50. HA! ;-)

Nice deep storage find Warren!

Warren, I think this might be your set, maybe of some value to you. Sorry if my teasing caught you off guard.

Albert, I bought your post hook line and sinker. Well lo and behold I have one of 5,000 of the EAS-500031~44 imported to the US, back in '79. Can you believe they have the original 4 page lyric per album and they have never been played. The albums look like they just came out of the factory. Perfection. I've been doing some surfing and this baby (because they are unplayed) is quite a find. The website you gave me: Box Sets Info did the job: giving me the education, that is. Seems that I have a real goodie. your teasing? 'Got a thick skin. I love it....peace, warren
