The Beatles Abbey Road UK 1st press  1969 vinyl LP misaligned apple - excellent!

"A couple of light ticks at end of come together, the rest is near perfect!"
This release has a misaligned Apple Records logo on the back and does not list "Her Majesty" on either cover or B side label. The front cover photo is more tightly cropped than on other releases, showing less sky (noticeable over the roof tops right) and less of the drainage grating bottom right. The sleeve has arrow spines.

Small Ⓟ on labels.

Copies exist with both black and white generic inners, the order of release (if any) has been debated since original release date.

Details of this copy:
Matrix / Runout (Side A runout stamped, variant 1): YEX 749-2 Matrix / Runout (Side B runout stamped, variant 1): YEX 750-1 Mother Stampers - side one = 1/MML; side two = 9/AAP
Outer sleeve is fully shiny and glossy front and rear, excellent readable perfect spine. A little light creasing of laminate on front , excellent all round -  No rips/stickers/writing - superb (see all photos)
Inner sleeve - black , die cut VG+
The labels and vinyl show very little signs of usage - LOOK AT THE PHOTOS, it is fantastic quality. A great, well looked after example; just a wispy hairline on side one , no major marks or scratches
Great , crisp, full bodied sound throughout, hardly any surface noise no skips or loud pops/crackle - watch and listen to the montage, even between tracks is really quiet! - I have tried to show this....
Starting bidding higher than I normally would, or Buy Now at under £300 as it so good. This is based on recent market prices too - look at the last photo, a screenshot of the last NM copy sold on Discogs went for over £925!
NB - offering free postage in UK on this one. I ship overseas via Ebay's GSP, so they will add shipping costs to get it there from their UK centre. Thank You
