No is PMC 7070 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Dark Apple label (see picture) and is a much MUCH rarer MONO 1st pressing!!!!  All the tracks are Pure quality Beatles at their best!!!! Any fan of The Beatles, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection - especially in this condition!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  The vinyl is in GREAT condition overall!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has only 3 or 4 light hairlines, only 3 or 4 VERY light scufflines, only 3 or 4 ULTRA light surface traces, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  Almost ALL of the details above - are on the orchestral side, with the Beatles side looking very VERY nice indeed!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!!  It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with NO nasty loud pops, only a few VERY light clicks (though mostly NONE!), NO jumps, NO sticks, only some slight distortion in places, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some slight background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - though this is lost WAY behind ALL but the VERY quietest parts of the music ONLY!!!!  And of course - the orchestral side does have some background sound - as it always does on this LP!!!!  The record must grade Very Good(Minus) (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL Plain White Inner sleeve which is BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Flipback Laminated MONO Cover is in GREAT condition overall - and though it isnt Mint, it is certainly solid and presentable!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, some corner wear (NOT through the colour!), possible 'tipping in' to the corner tips, a few creases (cover is still VERY flat looking!), shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering!!!!  The unlaminated back of the cover has NO grubbyness, barely ANY yellowing, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL, NO ringwear, 3 or 4 small areas of wear just below the top flipback (this does NOT affect the text OR the pictures!) which should be just about visible in the pictures, and NO writing!!!!  There is also a small 'touched in' split on the front opening edge - though this has been extremely well repaired, is 100% strong, and simply looks like a small 'creaseline'!!!!  The cover must grade Good if not better - and though it isnt perfect, it is still a presentable example!!!!  THIS LP MAY NOT BE IN MINT CONDITION - BUT THIS IS AN EXTREMELY RARE CHANCE FOR SOMEONE TO OWN ONE OF THE RAREST BEATLES LPs EVER MADE (ESPECIALLY IN MONO!), AT A CHEAPER PRICE THAN THE HUGE FORTUNE REQUIRED TO OWN A MINT ONE!!!!  AND THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT AT ALL, THAT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN MEGA RARE MONO(!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
