Beatles-Related 45 Lennon Power to the People with Picture Sleeve NICE!

I can’t test-play vinyl at the minute, so with that said…

Not Lennon’s toughest picture sleeve, but this one is NOT by any means easy to find.  This sleeve is not NM, but it’s pretty nice if you’ve ever tried to find one with no ringwear.

Sleeve:  VG+.  Muscular strong, NO SPLIT SEAMS.  Soft creases, light record outdent to both sides.  Very light serration wear from the 45, and even less dirtwear.  Edges are slightly frayed, not much.  Bottom edge has white wear.  Still a very strong sleeve.

A Company Apple sleeve will be provided to protect your company sleeve during shipping.

Vinyl: Excellent/ Excellent.  Both sides look NM unplayed until you look under a bare bulb.  One or maybe two extremely light angel hairs appear.

Labels: NM/ VG+.  Lennon side looks brand new.  Ono side has moderate dirtwear.  Full gloss.

Plates: Z12/ Z4.  Machine-stamped triangle with the letters, “IAM” inside in the dead wax on both sides makes this a Scranton pressing.  “Bell Sound” and “sf” also present.

As these records have been in storage for many years, they will play back with crackling and tics, however; a good moisturizing and cleaning with either D4 Discwasher or a VPI machine always clears them up.  Thanks!)

Note:  All 45’s ship outside of their sleeves in order not to damage the sleeve during shipment. Generic plain, white sleeves and Mylar provided.

Please don’t bid unless you’re willing to honor your amount, okay? Thanks!

(Please note:  Regarding play-testing, my Technics turntable has somehow seized.  The tone arm is stuck in the up position, and I can’t get it to fully return to its cradle.  Is there anyone out there, who can tell me if this is an easy fix?  Thanks!)
