&
ORIGINAL EMITEX inner

Mothers/Stampers Side 2: GGA @ 3 O'clock 3 @ 9 O'clock
LOVELY AND EARLY
Vinyl:
HEAVY QUALITY 154g
VG.
There are only light marks to the vinyl on both sides...But, after cleaning and then listening to her all the way through there were NO JUMPS OR STICKS on playback.
The tracks have a GORGEOUS, DEEP AND RICH SOUND RE-PRODUCTION....WHAT AN ALBUM!!
On track 4, side 1: Love You To, I did notice a small feelable tiny spot towards the end of the track..BUT, I am happy to say; this did not make the needle jump or skip, but did produce some revolutionary soft pops-which didn't ruin my enjoyment of this album one bit...But this is why she is going cheap for this rare pressing with these rare labels.
Lovely and flat.
Rich bass.
QUALITY HEAVY VINYL-TURN IT UP!
Labels:
EX.
All in accordance with the re-released 1st press:
"SOLD IN THE U.K." central text.
"THE GRAMOPHONE CO.." rim text.
There are only very light spindle marks visible when angled towards the light and looking for them AND with barely any central hole wear...really, rather nice.
NO WRITING
BOLD 'KT' Tax code to side 1 label.
"DR ROBERT" on the side two label.
***NOW, HERE'S THE UNUSUAL BIT.....both labels have the 'Gothic' typeface, rather than the blocked typeface..BUT THAT ISN'T THE UNUSUAL PART....The track listing follows on from the end of each credit, rather than listing from the left to right normal way-Have a look at the copy you've got and see the difference-This is more of a wrap around listing to the label...VERY RARELY SEEN...
Taxman and Eleanor Rigby on the same first line.
ALSO HAS A LARGER CATALOGUE NUMBER
Please see the detailed photo's.
Sleeve:
VG(+).
A lovely STRONG cover from the good old days.
Small MONO to the top right.
STRONG spine.
The corners are just lightly rubbed.
There are some small crescents of spidering to the front laminate, mainly near the opening. With a few small fingers of spidering emanating from the spine and seams. To the top left the laminate has lifted, just above a gentle spidering line BUT NOT BROKEN THROUGH.
Some discolouration to the back card near John-as can be seen in the detailed images provided.
REMAINS WONDERFULLY SOLID.
NO WRITING.
NO SPLITS.
It has the text to the bottom right corner to the back flipback:
"PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE LTD. PATENTS PENDING"

Inner:
VG.
It is the ORIGINAL "USE EMITEX" inner with the tracing paper lining....Only marked as VG due to a small 2cm split to the bottom and another 4cm to the left seam...other thant those two points, she has survived incredibly well.
NO writing.
NO SPLITS.
ALL ORIGINAL.
Certainly done her job.
GRAB THIS LITTLE BEAUTY FOR IT'S QUALITY WEIGHT AND SOLID CONDITION THROUGHT.
ALL COMPLETE WITH THE EMITEX INNER AND ALL ORIGINAL.
