This  is the First 1969 UK Pressing with the "first label, revised cover" version:
Dark green labels with a whole apple on the A-side and a half, sliced-open apple on the B-side. The labels have the ("An E.M.I. Recording") text on two lines and small "33 1/3" text moved to the left side. Publishing year they were printed with a small ℗ symbol. The B-side label does not have "Her Majesty" credits. The labels are quite dark, although the actual shade of green varies between copies.
Comes in a fully laminated cover without flaps on the backside. The front cover has the drain showing, and the rear cover has the Apple logo aligned with the text.
The record is in excellent condition and has a natural black sheen.
Side Two is running as NM condition record. 
Side One plays close to NM, because there are a few clicks on track 2.
That is why the vinyl is rated EX+. Several "hairs" don't affect the sound at all. The cover is in close to NM condition.  It was never in a smoky room. Great gift for The Beatles lovers and collectors
