Cover: Excellent. Genuine Garrod & Lofthouse wide-spine 1st Pressing mono top loader without the 'stereo' text on the rear cover. No writings/doodles or seam splits. Nicely embossed 'The Beatles' and nice clear number and clear spine text. No loose laminate and no wear to spine. Minor wear to edges.
Photos: Please note that these are not original photos but 4 x photocopies.
Poster: Original poster. Very Good - has a nibble in the corner and small hole.
Black Inner Sleeves: Original black inner sleeves are very good - some seam splitting and small tape repair but better than most that I have seen.
Labels: Excellent apart from Side 2 which has a name on it. All 4 sides have the 'Sold in the UK' text on 4 sides and all 4 sides omit the 'An EMI recoding' text.
Vinyl: Based on a visual inspection under a strong light... Side 1 = Fair. Side 2 = Fair. Side 3 = Fair to Good. Side 4 = Good - see grading defininitions below. Not the best but reflected in starting price.
Postage & packaging: £4 (UK) £5.50 (EUROPE) & £7.50 (REST OF THE WORLD)

Bad - The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
