Beatles Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Apple Label W/INLAY SMAS-2653.
Album is collector/audiophile grade, cover is Good/Above average. Jacket shows average wear for an item of its vintage not limited to: very light ring-wear visible on back cover typical of back-loading gatefolds of around 50 years age. No shelf- or spine-wear, still glossy. Color insert 100% intact in EX condition. Gatefold vibrant and unfaded. Disc is in EX+ archival condition. Play it OR display it. Pictures are of actual copy, NOT stock photos, and intend to highlight what flaws there may be, NOT to hide them. All pieces sold AS IS so ask any reasonable questions prior to auctions close. I’m selling the LP collection of a family friend. As one of the original used buyers at Amoeba San Francisco I’m well-suited to trading albums, and the quality of the vinyl condition is something I rarely saw at the buy counter there. The original owner purchased most new and only listened to them a short number of times before recording to reel-to-reel tape. Although well stored over the years, the quality of most covers is in the average to above range. In all but a few cases you will be blown away by the condition of the discs, if medium whelmed by the jackets. As a professional reseller I would place this collection at B+ overall, with the vinyl graded closer to A-/NM. Shipping may be combined on multiple orders. Please address any questions before auctions end via DM and I will describe all items to the best of my ability.
