Solid starter copy of The Beatles 1965 classic Rubber Soul. This is the UK mono 2nd pressing with -4/-4 matrices. 

The front laminated sleeve is in solid VG condition to the front – minor creasing and corner bend, and more like Good to the back, which has writing, scribbles and doodles on it. On the up side there's very little edge wear, the flapjacks are intact and the spine is clear and readable. I've conservatively graded it Good+ overall. 

The vinyl plays through without any jumps or sticks – however a feelable scuff on the first track of each side delivers pops and tics. The rest of it plays fine with a bit of surface noise – without the scuffs I'd grade it VG+, so downgraded to Good+ with them. 

The black and yellow labels have some spotting and spindle wear, and a label on one side, so Good+ to VG. 

The plain white inner is in Very Good order with no seam splits. 

Overall a solid starter copy and still an enjoyable listen. 99p start and no reserve!
