Another Beatles record that I had to do some research on.  This is a first pressing from the U.S. like the others up for sale during this auction run.  Not only that, but it's the first label run which is noted by the omission of "The Beatles" from the label (see photo).  Instead, the band members' names are listed.  Later runs corrected this.  I'm not sure the total number of pressings with this variation, but I would imagine it's on the rarer side, especially one in decent condition.
About the condition - The record plays through without any issues, and the sonics are nice and bright.  Nice mastering on the pressing. Light surface noise here and there, but nothing overpowers the music.  Solid VG+.  The outer sleeve has general shelf wear, scuffs along the edges, and the previous owner's name in ballpoint on the front.  Once corner has a paper scuff, about 2", so it looks like a split.  A small portion of the opening on one end is split (about 1/2").  VG.  The original inner sleeve is included but replaced by a high quality MoFi poly sleeve.
Check out my other listings for several other high-quality records!  This batch is a mix of a lot of different genres, but it trends towards rock and pop with some prog, folk, soul, and blues mixed in.  I have several records of big names and hard to find albums.  60s 70s and 80s.
A little about myself - I've collected records since the early 90s after my parents switched to CDs and gave me their collection.  It's a hobby that allows me to pass along duplicates to other music lovers, and I don't sell anything that I wouldn't want in my collection.  That means I listen to every record before putting it up for sale. The grading I give each one is accurate.  If a record does not hold up to my standards, I either throw it away or donate.  I will also answer any questions or provide additional photos to ensure you get the record you want.  I sell a large amount of records once or twice a year, and past sales led to many happy buyers.  Bid with confidence! 

Any pictures of the records themselves are meant to show the label and not necessarily the condition.  The condition of the vinyl is noted above, but I can provide detailed pictures if requested.
