Thanks for that link - so it's as I thought: an LP-sized box with four 4CD boxes, plus the booklet... mine is re-scaled (it's just photocopies) but I assume the original was LP-sized then, too... too bad I was born too late and don't have 400$ to give away...

I been refreshing that page every 5minutes since I asked for a repost :)
really do appreciate, I started listening to Lester Young because a local jazz program celebrated what would of been his 100th b'day. this set you have posted is very extensive, I'm working through the whole thing. thanks again, jim
