Embossed and mega low numbered A 1401731 Original 1968 Scranton PA first pressing of The Beatles 'White Album'. This is the rare and highly sought after pressing containing all 7 rare printing errors on the labels. Upon release of the album, John Lennon noticed these mistakes and had them corrected immediately on future pressings but not before some of these extremely rare error copies had already entered the marketplace. The very glossy LPs are EX/NM, showing little play, with minor hairlines/scuffs. You would expect more play, being 53 years old. The labels are absolutely NM with NO writing and NO stickers. The spindle holes are pristine and perfect. The inner/outer spines are completely intact and look NEAR MINT !! The EX cover is gorgeous with NO seam splits. Has a minor corner bumps on bottom. NO WRITING on the front, back or inside the sleeve, and NO WRITING on any of the record labels !!
It will arrive with the original thick-stock portrait photos and original poster, and original inner sleeves !! Sweet !!

Here's very invaluable information on how The Beatles White Albums were numbered, and the meaning behind all the sequences...
The first 25 White Albums were numbered with an 'A' prefix and then a series of zeros preceding the number (e.g. A0000009). There are always seven digits following the 'A' so if it was a single digit number it would be preceded by six zeroes or if it was a two digit number it would be preceded by five zeroes. It is not known what the 'A' was indicative of (it may mean printed in America or Apple but neither is confirmed).
Numbers 26-99 were three digit numbers preceded with a zero and no prefix.
Numbers 100 through approximately 209,999 were preceded with the correct number of zeroes to make them a seven digit number
(with no letter prefix)
Beginning around 210,000 to up near 590,000, they were preceded by a zero and had an 'A' prefix.
Copies 590,000 up to about 1,350,000 remain at seven digits using a leading zero if necessary and are prefixed with a large dot.
The next batch from 1,350,000 up to some point past 2,000,000 are prefixed with an 'A' but it's a thinner 'A' than used earlier.
From 2,000,000 to around 2,250,000 some are prefixed with a large dot and some with the 'A'
From 2,250,000 up to 3,000,000 the numbers are prefixed with the abbreviation for number (i.e. No.)On some of these the 'o' in No. is raised with the period below it instead of beside it.
For the final numbers over 3,000,000 the numbers are prefixed with a wide 'A'
