Hi Bonnie,  I believe what you have are an assortment of discs that
have been mixed up in their boxes.  Thorens AD30 discs were sold in
sets of 5 or 10 depending on when they were purchased.  Therefore,
since you have 7 boxes & several duplicates of fairly common discs,
I would speculate that you probably have 7 assorted sets of 5 and
portions of the original 5-disc starter set.  (Starter disc 0001,
"Lorelei", seems to be missing and probably disappeared with the box
and the mechanism.)  My guess is that if you look further on the blue
labels that say 758 you will see (probably very faintly) disc set
numbers like MO-3, XM-2 etc.

As these particular discs are not particularly rare or difficult to find,
your best bet for sale of the lot will probably be on eBay or another
auction site.  Remember to list the tune name as well as the number.
(I think I've shown them correctly below but there is a question about
one or two of the names and numbers and I'm unfortunately not at home
to double check the information or tell you which discs belong with
which set).
