Cover: Garrod & Lofthouse 1st UK pressing top loader without the 'stereo' text on the rear cover. Embossed The Beatles and nice clear very low number. No writings, doodles or seam splits. The spine has split in the past and has been neatly taped - see photo. Rates as VG+.
Black inner sleeves: VG+.
Photos: Near Mint. No pin-holes, writings, blu-tak.
Poster: 1st pressing poster. Excellent. No pin-holes/blu-tak.
Labels: Excellent+. No writings, stickers or doodles.
Vinyl: Play tested. Looks and plays VG. Feathering and hairlines but no deep feelable scratches. Some crackle to the opening of each side. However, this settles down after a minute or so and sounds really quite good thereafter. There is light crackle throughout and occasional pops in places (mainly the quieter tracks) but no skips/jumps. Would benefit from a clean as it has not been played (other than play-tested) for many years. Not mint or even excellent but a very reasonable VG.

Mint - The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.
Excellent - The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality.
Very Good - The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality despite noticeable surface marks and light scratches.
Good - The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and more significant scratches.
Fair - The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise, it may even jump.
Poor - The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc
Bad - The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
