This copy has clearly only been played once or twice and appears virtually 'as new'. Both sides play perfectly with no hint or groove wear, crackle, pops, jumps or repeats. 100% flat on the turntable without dishing or warping.
Cover: EXCELLENT
This extremely rare mono cover is recognisable by the text is being on the 'frontal' side and the omission of the 'Photographs by John Lennon' text. Stereo covers had the text printed on the rear panel which carried the photo credit.
Constructed of very thin unlaminated card, this fragile cover has survived extremely well.
The front and rear panels display some natural age discolouration around the central image, but no creases.
The corners and opening edges are clean, with only a small bump to bottom left corner. There are no marks, tears or writing anywhere. The spine and all seams are fully intact, strong and unsplit.
