Sold in UK/ E M I recording text on all four labels. Excellent condition , just displaying several spindle lines . No damage, rips or tears. Wonderful examples of this huge, monumental release.
Vinyls
2 record set with a few surface marks visible but no deep audible scratches. All marks purely cosmetic only ,with some longer, thicker hairlines visible but does not affect aural presentation. Overall, a very good+ visual / Excellent sheen with no dulling of the surfaces.
Audio
Channels play really well and gives an excellent delivery of this magnificent release. Slight static heard occasionally but remains at a distance. Stereo perspective conveys a tremendous range of dynamic sound and will not disappoint. Records give a tremendous delivery throughout playback.
Very scarce pressing of the most famous Beatles album ever produced. To find this label error in a complete album presentation is a true rarity indeed and quite unbelievable. In sensational condition and a true rarity indeed .
Perhaps the only one chance for you to possess this awesome, mispressed release . A magnificent collector’s album not to be missed ! An excellent example of this incredibly elusive pressing and, to locate complete with prints,poster, black inner sleeves and the very scarce photo spacer, is truly unbelievable.
