Cover: Garrod & Lofthouse 1st Pressing wide-spine top loader with the stereo text on the rear cover. No writings/doodles. Nice clear number and nicely embossed with 'The Beatles' on the front cover. Internal seams firmly in place. Some wear to edges/spine and occasional minor marks to front/rear. There is also a thin corner piece (bottom corner) which has been nibbled away by my daughter's hamster when our backs were turned. Approximately 1" x 1/8" - see photo. No black inners, photos or poster.
Labels: Excellent - these often have stickers/names written on but these are in fab condition. Mega rare 'Racoon' error which should, of course, be 'Raccoon'. While this label error is common on USA pressings, it is incredibly rare to find it on a UK pressing.
Vinyl: Sides 1 & 2 = P to Fair - slight edge warp. Sides 3 & 4 = Fair to Good. Being sold for its rarity value rather than its audio qualities. Valued at £150+ in the Record Collector but not worth that amount in this condition.
Postage & packaging: £4 (UK) £5.50 (EUROPE) & £7.50 (REST OF THE WORLD)

Very Good - The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality despite noticeable surface marks and the light scratches.
Good - The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches.
