THE BEATLES - THE BEATLES (WHITE ALBUM) APPLE - PCS 7067 (YEX.709)
This is a very rare pressing of The Beatles White Album, I cannot find details of another album anywhere online with the same matrix numbers, I've looked at all UK releases of this and just when I think I've found the same one the matrix numbers don't match, this is very unusual, I've checked all the online resources but cannot find another copy that matches this one in every way so after hours of research I took this to an expert dealer of Beatles records who confirmed this most defiantly is a very rare find because even he couldn't find any info about a release with these unusual matrix numbers.
The condition of this record and sleeve are NEAR MINT/ EXCELLENT
Complete with John Kelly portraits & White Hamilton collage poster!
It's really rare to find a Beatle's record of this age in such amazing condition, and I can tell you I've been handling this very carefully!!
This is one for the collector/ hardcore Beatles fan not only because of the amazing near mint condition but also because of the matrix numbers, I've looked everywhere and I cannot find any other releases documented with these matrix numbers making this particular release mega rare, have a look for yourself and if you do manage to find this release please let me know.

OUTSIDE OF THE UK? For some reason eBay is only allowing me to give one option for international postage so I have given the price for outside of Europe which is £19 (signed for) within Europe is £13.50 (signed for) if you win the auction and your in Europe I will amend the invoice accordingly or refund the difference.
