$

217

I am selling more BEATLES and related records from my collection. So, please check my other auctions, too.

Here are the details about the record and picture sleeve in this auction:

·        “MOTHER” by John Lennon b/w “WHY” by Yoko Ono

·       This is Apple Records 1827. 

·       This record with picture sleeve was released December 28, 1970.

·       This PICTUIRE SLEEVE has become a TOUGH ONE TO FIND! It has the same images on it that are on the LP cover of “Plastic Ono Band” by John Lennon and on the cover of its companion LP, “Plastic Ono Band” by Yoko Ono. John’s LP cover has him reclining against a tree with Yoko’s head in his lap, and Yoko’s LP as her reclining against the same tree with John’s head in her lap.

·       This ORIGINAL PICTURE SLEEVE is in NEAR MINT MINUS CONDITION!! Only some SMALL and VERY LIGHT folds (not creases) on half of the tab at the top opening keep me from grading the sleeve Near Mint. (Some sellers would probably grade it Near Mint anyway, but I feel I needed to mention it.) And the sleeve is VERY FLAT. There is a bit of very light disc impression (not ring wear). So, this sleeve has NO tears, NO seam splits, NO ring wear, NO creases, NO soiling, and NO writing on it. YOU’LL BE HARD PRESSED TO FIND ANOTHER ONE AS NICE AS THIS ONE!!!

·       The VINYL is NEAR MINT. It was manufactured at Capitol’s Scranton Pressing Plant. 

This is DEFINITELY a VERY NICE BEATLES’ PICTURE SLEEVE  & 45 RPM RECORD TO ADD TO YOUR BEATLES’ VINYL COLLECTION!!
