HI, YOU ARE BIDDING ON A ORIGINAL APPLE RELEASE OF THE BEATLES ABBEY ROAD ON CAPITOL SO-383. THE COVER IS EXCELLENT IN FACTORY SHRINK, NICE CLEAN SPINE, NO RING WEAR TO SPEAK OF (THESE TEND TO HAVE A LOT OF THAT), WITH HER MAJESTY LISTED ON THE BACK. THESE ARE THE SECOND BATCH COVERS, AND THE RAREST ONES. THE RECORD IS RIGHT AT EXCELLENT, PLAYS VERY NICE WITH LOW NOISE ALL THE WAY THROUGH, CLEAN LABELS WITH HER MAJESTY LISTED ON THE LABEL AS WELL. THE ONLY THING THAT KEEPS THIS ONE FROM MINT I WOULD SAY IS THAT IS A SLIGHT STAIN AREA ON THE STREET BELOW PAUL UNDER THE SHRINK. LITTLE HISTORY ON THIS, THESE SECOND BATCH COVERS LISTED HER MAJESTY, BUT THEY RAN OUT OF THESE PRETTY QUICK, AND QUEENS LITHO PRINTED A SLICK FROM THE BACK FIRST BATCH COVERS TO GO ON THE BACK OF COVER NUMBER 3 IN 1969. THE THIRD PRESSING ON ONLY HAS HER MAJESTY ON THE LABEL, AND THATS THE WAY IT ENDED UP, BUT THE SLICK DID GO AWAY IN THE EARLY 1970'S, BUT HER MAJESTY STILL ONLY APPEARED ON THE LABEL. THE FIRST 3 COVERS ALL ARE VERY COLLECTIBLE, BUT THIS ONE IS THE RAREST ONE, ACCEPT OF COURSE THE ONES WITH THE CAPITOL LOGO ON THE SLICED SIDE OF THE LABEL. THE ALBUM WILL BE SEPARATED TO AVOID ANY DAMAGE DURING SHIPPING, AND THANKS FOR BIDDING.
