Here is a collectable Beatles item.
From a collection that was gathered by a lady when she was a Beatles obsessed teenager during the 60's and beyond.
These records at auction are the last bits of the collection of memorabilia, they were pretty well played at the time but have been stored over the years, indoors away from damp, heat, cobwebs and the like.
I've tried my best to give a fair appraisal of their condition which is quite detailed, but please if you are one of these particularly fussy collector types they are not really for you, same goes for dealers or flippers; they will go for what they are worth here, so no need to bother.
I would rather they go for less money to someone who is going to give them a spin and enjoy them than having to deal with painful moaning about a click, pop or some other imperfection that I haven't mentioned they are quite well used...  thanks!
Matrices:
XEX 421-IN XEX 422-IN
Vinyl Sleeve
In one piece, spine text legible, obvious damage / wear to the top and bottom of the spine.
Has obvious feel and look of age and previously had sellotape along the edges, which has since been removed but has left a residue.
Flips at the top left starting to split.
Some obvious general discolour etc, however not totally overpowering, and still resembling the original article.
Generic replacement inner.
Vinyl Record
Has been deep cleaned on MOTH/2 RCM.
Labels show numerous spindle marks on either side.
Surface is clean.  There are some light wispy hairline contact rubs / light surface blemishes here and there.  Groove wear forming mainly on the last tracks either side but they still play through in accordance with the others.
No deep scratches or gashes, horizontal scratches or catastrophic damage!
The record sits flat.
It plays through well with a strong sound all things considered but with some light crackle around some frequencies and some limitations however nothing overly intrusive or close to overpowering and it is of an enjoyable quality, you may perhaps experience an occasional click or pop, some background presence of some sort in the dead wax or softer section - those kind of imperfections as common with quite well played vinyl records of this age.
I listen at high volume to accentuate any imperfections.
Certainly of an enjoyable sound quality and on visual inspection the record shows signs of repeated play but not totally excessive or careless handling.
Overall this is an enjoyable example of a Beatles collectable!
