Original 1st US pressing factory sealed copy of The Beatles’ 10th studio album and the band’s only 2 LP release that came out on November 22, 1968. This 1st print embossed title gatefold cover with a stamped number containing the leading “A” prefix was a part of the batch that Capitol Records assigned to the Los Angeles, Hollywood pressing plant which had the numbers from 0215001 to about 0580000. This copy was most likely equipped with the vinyl during the 1st pressing day as its cover number 0244242 is very close to the starting number 0215001 of the Los Angeles plant batch covers. This impeccable copy remains factory sealed with the shrink wrap not having any seam splits, tears or missing pieces and contains the original factory breathe holes, one on each side. This copy includes an original fold out lyrics and photo poster along with 4 glossy portrait style photos on the card stock. The 1st pressing copies of this album should have inside the Stereo green Apple Records labels with the “Mfd. By Capitol Records Inc.” rim text, Capitol Records logo and SWBO-101 catalog number.  Outstanding factory sealed copy in Mint condition.
