Description

Genuine "Introducing the Beatles" album with the RARE "STEREOPHONIC" white sticker on the cover.  Cover passes all tests to be genuine - George's shadow on the front and the Honey Test on the back (all the letters in the taste of honey are complete with no missing corners).  Please, Please me with comma.

 

The disc Is also genuine and also Stereo (fat stereo).  The groove run-out area is just under 1 inch.  On the run-out area are etched the following...

 

Side 1 (with serf)

  • "6313" preceeded by a "delta type triangle"
  • "MR" in a circle - this looks to be a stamp and not an etching, but very small
  • "63-3402 Stereo"
  • "URJ"

Side 2

  • "6313X" preceeded by a "delta type triangle"
  • "MR" in a circle
  • "63-3403" Stereo
  • "URJ"

I am not a collector, but reading about the grading scales I judge the cover to be VG+ and the Disc VG.  The cover has no splits in the edges.  There are some shelf wear marks on the the front of the cover, but no "halo".  The back looks very clean.  See the pictures or ask questions to make you own assessment. 

 

The disc has some wear marks around the hole.  NO major scratches that would make the record skip that I can see.

 

The inner sleeve is torn on all four sides and is just barely holding together.
