Description
Considered an essential addition to any Beatles collection, an original UK 4th Pressing Stereo is one of the most sought after of all The Beatles vinyl.
PCS 3042
YEX 94/95-1-1
STAMPERS GM 1 L 1
MTZ TAX CODE EMBOSSED TO SIDE 2 LABELS.
The Black and Yellow Parlophone Labels are in excellent condition. The labels do display some spindle marks to either side, and some do extend beyond the centre section, particularly on side 1. The labels are clean with all lettering unspoilt. Both sides have retained their deep black base colour with no fading. Both labels are free from any writing, marks or blemishes.
The heavy weight vinyl is excellent, this has been played and therefore it does display some light wispy marks and needle marks, however none are overly serious and just one to side two track 5 is just feelable. The vinyl does retain its original high gloss finish and is perfectly flat with no warping, and there is no needle lift when played.
The audio is also excellent, and has a great stereo sound throughout. There is some mild crackle to both run in/off grooves and to some of the quieter parts of the audio, there are also some quiet pops in places, but these do not severly interfere with the listening enjoyment. The vinyl does play through completely with no sticks or jumps evident.
The correct Emitex inner is present and in good condition. It does show the inevitable light creases, and there is one tiny mark to one side.
The outer and original E.J Day sleeve is in superb condition, featuring the large "stereo" logo and offering a vibrant and extremely glossy front laminated panel which displays light wrinkles and a few light thumbnail creases. The opening edge shows minimal signs of handling and is still straight. There are very mild corner bumps present. Edges are still square and the rear of the sleeve is exceptionally clean, no minimal marks and no writing. All 3 flip-backs lie perfectly flat with one crease at the bottom.
The Spine is rigid, and wording perfectly readable.
The welcome addition to any Beatles collection.
