THIS IS FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION, SO WILL NOT ACCEPT LESS THAN THE STARTING PRICE-SHE IS WORTH CONSIDERABLY MORE!!!
Have a listen to a track from this album for sale:
This album was The Beatles FIRST release on the now famous Apple label. It was entered into the charts on the 7th of December 1968 and went straight to number one-where it stayed for 7 weeks! Making it the FIRST double album to get the top slot...EVER!
The rather unusual fact about this album is that it was the first release by The Beatles which contained only SOLO material.
By the time 1970 ended, the total sales of this wonderful album were estimated to be 6.5 Million! However...get this...The only other album that beat this a few years later was "Saturday Night fever" !!!

LOVELY EARLY PRESSING HERE
The Vinyl:
142g/156g
VG+/EX-
The vinyl has only some VERY light marks to each disc. After just listening to her ALL THE WAY THROUGH, I found a SUPERB SOUND REPRODUCTION!!
DEEP BASS and CLEAR PEAKS
I only found some light and very occasional background noise...even up loud!which I am sure would improve with just a gentle professional clean.
GLORIOUS MONO
***NOTHING TO MAKE HER JUMP, SKIP OR STICK***
FLAT as the day she was born!
TURN HER UP-I DID ;)
The labels:
EX. All four of the labels are extremely bright and clean with the DARKER apple.
There are only very light spindle marks to each label, these can only be seen when angling towards the light....
VERY NICE!!
Next to NO HOLE WEAR at all!
NO WRITING
"Mfd in the U.K." to each of the labels.
PLEASE SEE THE DETAILED IMAGES PROVIDED-CLICK ON THEM FOR EVEN LARGER IMAGES AND SEE MY FEEDBACK FOR FAIR GRADING AND HAPPY CUSTOMERS
The Cover:
VG+
NUMBERED: 0189826 It is an EARLY first run, with TOP loading.
Garrod and Lofthouse gatefold
The spine remains strong and clear, with light rubbing.
Superb cover-creamy white, with just a few small crescents of spidering as well as small fingers of spidering from the seams of this glorious laminated gatefold cover.
There is a little rubbing to the bottom of the spine-that really is it!!
CERTAINLY NO SPLITS OR TEARS
Correct MONO cover as it doesn't have the printing of Stereo to the back top right.
GLORIOUS and clean on the inside of the gatefold, with just two tiny spots of ink.
(Please see the detailed pictures for yourself-it really is lovely).
AGAIN, I AM BEING INCREDIBLY CRITICAL!!!
Excellent, very strong Garrod & Lofthouse gatefold flipbacks....
ORIGINAL FIRST PRINTING!!!
Inners: 1is EX and the other is VG-. Original BLACK inners.
One of them is very nice, whilst the other has a tear to the window....BUT no splits to the seams.
They have the die-cut corners and the 'windows' on one side to each.
THEY ARE ALL ORIGINAL-NOT REPRO!
Pictures: ALL present (John and George, Ringo & Paul)
They are NEAR MINT AND ORIGINAL.
They DON'T have any pin-holes around their edges...Which was quite typical for the Beatles fans to pin their beau's up on their bedroom wall.
SHARP CORNERS
Lovely and bright.
GORGEOUS
Poster: VG. Full size and with lyrics to the back.
She is in solid condition, but does have a couple of small holes to the creases.
ALL ORIGINAL
ALL IN ALL A LOVELY COLLECTORS PIECE HERE...DON'T FORGET:
IT'S THE FIRST MONO PRESS.
SOUNDS GREAT-LOOKS GREAT-IS GREAT!
**ALL COMPLETE**
(As The Beatles wanted YOU to receive the COMPLETE package of this revolutionary album, back in 1968...)
