CONDITIONS:

COVER SLEEVE: The original stereo, full laminated cover without flaps on the back side. Cover is printed by Garrod & Lofthouse Co. Ltd. The famous cover design done photographer Iain Macmillan. The initial 1st press green tint cover, with green Apple logo out of alignment and the text, shifted to the left. This copy features the much harder to find misalignment Apple logo sleeve, which is in a truly very nice, clean condition! This example is definitely in very good, near excellent condition with nice shine surface, gloss and clean, with no tears, writing, marks by excluding of two very light laminate surface folds/traces considering for it`s 50 years old. At the corners has a minimal laminate wears. The spine is well shaped, that is excellent fully legible/readable, without any wears, looks nice on the whole (see pics). Photo: Iain Macmillian. Definitely very good (+), near excellent condition sleeve.
VINYL: The Iconic 26 September 1969 UK Stereo Vinyl record "ABBEY ROAD", with last Beatles studio records. Nice bright, clean and shiny, as it was just pressed! Fantastic jet black mirror like surfaces, it looks GREAT with NO really nasty scratches, groovewear, or nasty deep scuffs whatsoever! Daylight I find just a light surface mark/scuff and couple cosmetic non-sounding and unfeeling hair lines (only visible in direct angled light) mostly caused from where it has stored or been removed from it's cover near the 50 years! Of course, none of these light blemishes really interfere with play AT ALL! BRILLIANT for a record of this age and rarity earliest pressing! Near excellent condition!
AUDIO: The sound of vinyl record is most important for the client pleasure. You have playtested vinyl. Upon playing both sides, the record plays brilliantly with fantastic stereo sound-clarity, sharpness and depth! The sound really is great - clearly identifiable instruments and vocals! Plays fine, with dense, pure mono sound, WITHOUT any SCIPS or JUMPS and irritating loud pops and clicks. Only light static pops and clicks, which are typical for the 50 years old vinyl record. Really a very desent sounding vinyl LP record. There is periodic brief bursts of background surface may be static noise, mainly in-between quiеter places. Amazingly perfect record at this age and rarity, listened to and stored very carefully in time! Very good, near excellent sound or better - personal point of view matter! The record's surface is clear, but the vinyl furrows are probably polluted over the years, and a professional cleaning will further improve the sound quality and clear the static noises at quiеter places. No deterioration in sound quality, plays excellent considering! Very good (+) condition for the more pretentious fans of The Beatles songs.
LABELS: Yellow Parlophone Type-6-1. Black and Yellow Parlophone label with silver print: the name "THE GRAMOPHONE CO. LTD.(capital letter)" on the outer rim, the "SOLD IN U.K." remark, and the "(P) 1967" statement. "Sans Serif" type: PMC 7027, with 1st Mother and very early Stampers. Record labels are clean and the print is clearly visible, no writing on the record label, no sticky residue or discoloration, except a couple very light spindle traices on either side. Both labels are in excellent condition, except a name written on label side 2.
INNER SLEEVE: An original inner sleeve with “PATENT NO 1.125.155.” on the left side and “MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN” on the right bottom side. These inner sleeves used in the first pressing of “Abbey Road” in 1969, together with black inner sleeve with a die-cut circular opening on one side to expose the Apple label. The inner sleeve is clear, has no writens and without any splits, but there is a couple of folds. Inner Sleeve in very good (+) condition.
