COVER

This gatefold cover is arguably the most vulnerable type used to house the Beatles albums, due to the record being stored from the inside on the right hand side ! this design puts alot of strain on the spine and left hand page due to the unbalanced weight ratio.This is the main reason most of these covers don't survive very well , however this one has managed to withstand most of the strain and allthough there is some wear to the spine edges, it's still intact without rips ! the spine is also nice shape without any splits or wear to the centre, just a little stress cracks but still fine.The laminate still retains a glossy shine and has no lifting or bubbling, the corners are also in nice shape with just a hint of wear. Inside is very clean with no writing, stains or stickers present and undamged inner flaps.The rear is the original dark coloured variant and again nice laminate with just a little ring impression and a crease across one corner.It looks better in the flesh as the pictures don't do it justice.Not a near mint example but a very nice solid one that is well above the average condition offered  (see-pics) strong VERY GOOD PLUS CONDITION !

 

VINYL

Both sides have a nice rich glossy shine with clean deep grooves.No nasty scratches or scuffs visable just a couple of small superficial hairlines, looks great.All tracks play through very well with no pops , skips or repeats , clear and bright audio delivered through both channels with nothing more than a little static crackle inbetween some tracks, this has been very well cared and treated with respect .Nice clean looking and sounding example  ( see-pics )Visualy and Audibly EXCELLENT CONDITION

LABELS

Both labels are the earliest issued with the Parlophone worded rimm text and the ' sold in uk ... print .Super clean & bright condition with no writing, stickers etc and just a couple of the faintest miss-aimed spindle traces around each unworn centre hole, only visable when viewed at an angle in the correct light. KT tax code present on side 2 , fresh clean  set ( see-pics )  EXCELLENT PLUS CONDITION !       INNER Complete with the original Emitex inner sleeve ! again in very nice clean condition with no writing or stains present, just some light storage creases and a little toning, nice example   ( see-pic )     PLEASE READ INFORMATION BELOW FOR GRADING,PACKING AND POSTAGE DETAILS. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
