The Beatles Sealed Original Help Mono MAS

Up for auction is an original Sealed Mono pressing of The Beatles Help! With the Olive green inner sleeve just barely visible!

I’ll do my best to describe it, it’s very hard to see and understand the condition and how nice it is unless it is in your hand. There is a ding on the bottom left corner, fairly small I’d say about half an inch, and is evident a bit on the back side, which it is very small.

There are no tears in the shrink and it is very tight all around. The mouth is completely sealed and the olive green inner sleeve is just barely visible.

The cover is very fine looking, for the most part it is very white. When looked under a bright light and closely you can see a little bit of wear, mostly at the bottom of the cover, it is almost like a blueish color. Near the spine on the front there is some very light aging lines that run horizontally, these are about no more than a quarter of an inch and are almost hard to see unless looking for them. There is a tiny little crease mark on the front cover next to the H, which is small but there. Other than that the front cover is very nice, and the graphics are sharp and colorful. Looks as though the ink could have been printed yesterday, same with the back text and images.

The back cover is very close to perfect except for that tiny ding on the opening. On the spine there is a bit of a split, but I don’t think it is from the record, I think there was weight put on the edge that caused it to crack a bit. I don’t think it is split through, but the white part separated a bit. I didn’t notice it at first, but after rechecking to write about the condition I noticed it. Besides that there are no seam splits or any splits in the shrink. Even the part that I referred to the shrink is still fully intact around it. Other than that it is very nice.

It isn’t dead mint, but it isn’t too far off. I like being harsh and critical when grading, and am probably going a bit hard on it. Very very nice for the age and can’t imagine that there could be any version of this album that is in dead mint condition due to the white cover, at least I haven’t seen one.

The spine is fully intact, and Completely legible. Just the little split that is behind the spine.

The front covers colors are incredibly sharp and colorful, as is are the back covers and back image. The ink looks as though it could have been printed yesterday!

The shrink wrap is perfectly intact and there are absolutely no rips, cuts or any shrink missing! All of the corners are still tight and perfectly wrapped in the shrink. The shrink is very tight around the entire album! The cover opening is also still fully sealed, and the original Olive Green Capital sleeve is just barely visible.

There appears to be Two factory breathe holes on the back around 5 inches apart, as well as two breathe holes on the front also around 5 inches apart

The record has never seen the light of day, and is guaranteed to be an original Capital Mono Rainbow pressing. Since the item is still sealed, the record is assumed to be MINT

Don’t miss your chance to own a very nice original Mono Sealed copy of this amazing Album!
