  • Great Value,super quick postage,thank you

    Whilst these very early recordings were mainly sketchy (no pun intended) they do show a monster taking shape and thus about to gobble up some the dreary post war humour on offer by the BBC,and very interesting it is too ! .Just a pity that volume 14 couldn’t have been volume 1,but then ,more material came to light,as the series developed. Great value,and super quick postage,thank you. Just as described.

    Poor sound quality. I expected better for the money that I paid.
