Media (Play Tested): VG+ (EX-?) (Both Discs, All Sides). Sits completely flat with no warping. Great playing surface on all sides, retain a lovely glossy sheen and sounds great with only the very slightest of surface noise, even during the quietest parts. One of the finest No EMI Mono copies I have seen. A few light surface marks from the black inners, but genuinely clean with a lovely gloss. Even the spindle holes are without blemishes. Incredible and looks barely played. I would’ve graded EX but there are a couple of surface marks under bright light and I know for a record this valuable, smallest margins are important and collectors need to know exactly what they are buying. Incredibly low mothers/stampers as you would expect from this pressing, with these labels.


Sleeve: EX. Low Number. Clean with some very slight age discolouration. It has very clean flip backs and fantastic corners and sides. Some very slight age wear at top loader. The number is incredibly clear and the embossed The Beatles has no visible laminate lift at all. A couple of very small marks at the rear near the spine prevent this being NM - it really is that good. The spine is fully intact, both ‘The Beatles’ and the Mono and Stereo catalogue numbers are clear and undamaged.


Inner Sleeve/Inserts/Spacer: EX/VG+/VG+. All original black inner sleeve with no splits though the records have been stored in anti-static sleeves. The Photos and Poster are originals and in very good plus condition, though the poster has slight crease splits and a small amount of biro, along with a small tear to the bottom corner (see photos). The very rare spacer has only the very slightest of creasing but has age related discolouration.


What can I say about this pressing, and these miss-print labels, that you haven’t already read? I will just say that this is a stunning package and the inclusion of the spacer proves how well this has been looked after.


Please also study the photos as these make up the full description.


Will package securely and post next day.
