The Beatles Abbey Road Vinyl LP Record Apple Records SO-383 (VG+ Vinyl) Rare- Condition is Used. Shipped with USPS Media Mail. 
Vinyl itself is in VG+ shape. A  couple light scuffs on side 1 and one minor scuff on side 2, none of which can be felt with a fingernail. Unfortunately one side 1 label there is some felt writing from previous owner/owners. Side 2 is clean. A little scratchy in quiet parts and between tracks, but the songs themselves really ring out, like a superb quality recording from Apple/E.M.I.; Plays through just fine...
The original “sewer cover” jacket is VG to VG+ condition, with general wear all around. There is the usual ring wear on the front & back. Some shelf wear on edges and corners, strong spine.  This is a nice early press that features the thicker, “heavy” vinyl of a mid-60’s record. The pressing was done at the Capitol Los Angeles facility, which is represented by the “asterisk” * in the runout matrix- If you’re looking for a nice sounding early example, this is the one-
Also, the “rare” mention above is because the cover and vinyl both have The track  “Her Majesty” listed. 
This is a fantastic classic album if you’ve never heard it with these songs “in-sequence”, which is the way I’ve always heard it- one of my favorites, a Beatles best, & a “must-have” for any collection- I’m starting this at $1.99
Vinyl will be placed in it’s own anti-static sheath, separate from its cover, & well packed in a standard record mailer, USPS Media Mail
Records have been given a basic cleaning, but I would recommend a proper cleaning to get even better sound and performance!

Of course returns are accepted if item does not match description-Check my feedback, it’s 100% positive! Just a note: These albums come from a "virus-free" home. My heart goes out to those that are affected worldwide. You can be sure that I adhere to the social distancing policy very strongly and will thoroughly clean & pack these items well before shipping.
Thank you for looking,
