Record vinyl Condition  = NEAR MINT

Labels Condition = NEAR MINT

Sleeve Condition = EXCELLENT

Emitex inner = EXCELLENT

 

The thick heavyweight vinyl as been well cared for and hardly been played or used by the original owner,  who as owned this LP since the first week of it's release way back in march 1963.

It's hard to beleive the vinyl is near 50 years old..The vinyl as that just pressed look with a lovely deep black shine to both sides

Graded visually in strong bright light. 

The vinyl as no scuffs, scratches or unsightly marks present and is as near to perfect as you will find....Investment grade    VINYL = NEAR MINT

 

The record plays as good as it looks with no skips,Jumps or any distortion

It gives off a rich deep clear mono sound with no bad crackling or detoration in sound quality.. It sounds fantastic in mono alot better than it's stereo counterpart and this is how the Beatles intended for the album to be heard in mono!!

NO dishing or warping the record lies 100% flat on the turntable.

 

 

 

Both sets of Labels are in fantastic condition 

These are prime examples, when tilted in the light there is no sign of any spindle trails and hardly any wear to the spindle, if any wear, It doesn't look to have seen a turntable much in it's lifetime.

There is no writing,scuffs,or sticker damage

LABELS = NEAR MINT 

 

 

 

The sleeve is graded as excellent condition, all three flipbacks remain firmly stuck down with no damage or lifting.

 All four corners of the cover are square and solid apart from some very,very minor rubbing and tiny bumps.

The unlaminated rear of the sleeve remains really bright and white as when first issued!!

 with NO scuffs,stickers or handwriting.

All seams top,bottom and spine are smooth with NO splits or cracking and the wording on the spine is clear sharp and perfectly readable.

The only flaws really on the sleeve is on the rear panel at the opening

There is a minor ripple crease, which to be perfectly honest looks more of a manufacturing fault than wear and there is 2 or 3 minor creases to the front laminate opening and that's it ...Altogether a lovely clean sleeve which is worthy of any good record collection.   SLEEVE = EXCELLENT

Complete with it's original poly emitex inner sleeve which is in excellent condition.

Strict grading graded with the UK record collectors grading system and I offer money back guarantee if not satisfied.

All records packed well with strong durable packaging with the vinyl removed out of the main cover to stop damage to sleeve while in transit

It will be packed so it reaches you in the same condition as it left me, so please bid with confidence.

NO RESERVE!!!!
