I've come across this rare gem - A full, uncut set of sails from the Carribbean
Clipper, still attached, never used. Well, obviously I'd classify this particular
one as used as I found it floating around in a box of parts. But anyway, I don't
see a catalog entry for the sails still being attached. I'd be happy to
submit them as an entry if they are quantifiable. I'd plan to straighten
them before posting a pic - They're still a tad bit wrinkly from taking a
bath, I mean, they are 31 years old

I imagine it would make the most sense to have it be a part that's an assembly
of these parts:
 
Part No: sailbb22  Name: Cloth Sail 27 x 17 Top with Blue Thick Stripes Pattern
* 
sailbb22 Cloth Sail 27 x 17 Top with Blue Thick Stripes Pattern
Parts: Cloth
 
Part No: sailbb21  Name: Cloth Sail 30 x 15 Bottom with Blue Thick Stripes Pattern
* 
sailbb21 Cloth Sail 30 x 15 Bottom with Blue Thick Stripes Pattern
Parts: Cloth
 
Part No: sailbb20  Name: Cloth Sail Triangular 15 x 22 with Blue Thick Stripes Pattern
* 
sailbb20 Cloth Sail Triangular 15 x 22 with Blue Thick Stripes Pattern
Parts: Cloth

Then, of course, the inventory of the assembly would consist of the 3 above parts.

Agreed - and I definitely don't want to miss the opportunity to catalog them
still attached like this - as I'll wager there's not many of these left
still intact like this (aside from the few and far between sealed sets for this
set).

This definitely ranks at the top for one of the rarest discoveries I've had
in a used pile. That and a 10123 set with all the factory bags still sealed
