Description
Near mint fully complete 1968 1st press UK Mono Top Loader with all components including inner sleeves, poster and all 4 original portraits in beautiful condition with shiny glossy vinyl no scratches or needle marks very little if any play wear visible on these discs!
Very hard to find low number No. 0061293 with early mother stampers confirming the vinyl was pressed even early than the sleeve.
Why does this matter? Sound quality! Sound quality! Sound quality!
Listening to an original UK Mono White Album 1st press from early mother stampers is like hearing it for the first time. It sounds like you are in the room! There are things on this record you can hear that you can’t hear from other 1st presses from later stampers!
People focus on the number one the cover and it’s important but has nothing to do with the sound quality as the vinyl was pressed separately.
Up to 4 numbers on first presses came from the mothers - that’s nearly 10000 copies per mother!
The mother stampers are
G
R
A
M
P
H
L
T
D
This one includes the following:
Side 1: XEX-709-1/ mother HH ( number 66 from the H mother)
Side 2: XEX-710-1/mother HL (number 67 from mother combination- HL)
Side 3: XEX-711-1/mother PP (number 55 from mother P)
Side 4: XEX-712-1/mother PA (number 53 from mother combination PA)
Only Mono copies were released in the UK. All US 1st Presses are Stereo versions that sound nothing like this record!
Go back to 1968 with this record! You won’t regret it!
Thank you!
