THE BEATLES - RUBBER SOUL UK XEX579-4, 580-4 G & L SLEEVE MT TAX CODE VG/VG
Next up in the ongoing clearance of my collection of music accumulated over 40+ years I am starting to list some more of my collection, there will be many rarities coming up so check back for more in the coming weeks.
Next up is The Beatles - Rubber Soul. Released in 1965 by Parlophone Records cat no PMC1267.
Early UK mono press, XEX579-4/XEX580-4 matrix, MT tax code. Garrod & Lofthouse patent pending sleeve.
Vinyl is in VG condition, well played, plenty of surface marks but like most 60's heavy pressings still plays very well. As you can hear from the video clip, some light noise occasionally but plays with no skips or jumps, a perfect playing copy.
Sleeve is in VG condition, some general wear but no writing.
Would be graded higher but small tear about 1/2" on opening edge of front. Tracing paper lined inner is split on 3 sides in total and has some rips.
I
am conservatively under grading these listings, but all have been play
tested using Sennheiser dynamic head phones and all items listed play
through with no skips or jumps and minimal background noise, that does
not interfere with the music at normal volumes. Any
exceptions to this will be noted, the pictures were taken on a high
definition camera that form part of the description so please check and
ask if not sure. Please ask me about any individual item before making a purchase.
The make offer button is there, feel free to make an offer on any item, at worst I will say no. Some
of the items I am listing are very, very rare and the opportunity to
add these to your collection can be few and far between. Royal
Mail next day by 1pm insured service is included in all prices for UK
bidders for all items over £50, items under £50 will be sent 2nd class
signed for. All items are available for worldwide shipping via Ebay Global Shipping. International
buyers please check all relevant shipping charges/import duties prior
to purchase as new regulations following Brexit have affected many
countries.
Positive feedback is always left after it has been received.
Please check my other listings for more rarities. Thanks for looking and happy bidding.
