The Beatles -Abbey Road - 1969 UK 1st Issue Vinyl LP without 'Her Majesty' credit on sleeve or label. Aligned Apple logo on reverse of sleeve . Laminated sleeve, drain visible on front cover ( PCS 7088)
Matrices - YEX 749-2-GAA 9 10

Pro cleaned and play tested
Vinyl - plays through nicely with no jumps or skips. There is the occasional bit of light background crackle on a few intros and quieter passages, but nothing that overwhelms the music. No skips/jumps. Visually quite decent with a few light hairlines/scuffs on each side, none of them feelable or severe . A decent playing copy. I would grade VG+
The sleeve is in very nice condition for age with only light signs of wear/handling. No tears, rips or writing. Spine straight and readable with 3 lightish scuffs. (no splits) VG+. See photos for clarification and feel free to request more of required.
I use the UK Record Collector Magazine gradings guide.
Will also come with a new pvc protective sleeve, and the original white EMI inner sleeve which is in VG++ condition
This will be packaged well in a custom 'Amazon style' mailer with additional cardboard protection.
