Description
THE BEATLES - 'SIXTH CHRISTMAS RECORD'
Recorded separately by each Beatles and put together by legendary Radio 1 disc-jockey friend Kenny Everett, this disc mailed out to UK Fan Club members only in December 1968.
This EXCELLENT example is a 2-sided, 33 1/3rpm flexi-disc with a printed LYNTONE label: LYN 1743/4
The disc is housed inside a Paul McCartney designed picture cover.
The original 'SUPERPIX - sales service' order form is present & MINT.
CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT
Being printed directly onto the disc, the label text was prone to disappearing at the slightest touch. 99% of the text is still present here with just a few letters missing from the main title of the disc.
Visual: EXCELLENT
Both playing surfaces are clean and free from any bends, creases or other such damage. Close inspection directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp reveals a little more than some faint wispy paper-type hairlines, but definitely no significant marks or any scratches to either side.
Play: EXCELLENT
This copy has received just a few careful plays and is without any major deterioration to the sound quality. Due to the nature of the disc's material, a little light background is present but not enough, in my opinion, to spoil the enjoyment.
Cover: EXCELLENT +
An extremely firm and vibrant example with no discolouration or any other significant signs of wear. In fact apart from two faint storage bends, there really is very little to fault on this well-preserved example.
SUPERPIX Insert: MINT
