*MINT* 1969 UK PRESSING LP
This MINT & UNPLAYED archive copy is a 1969 UK pressing on the dark green Apple label: PCS 7088

Housed in a fully laminated 'Garrod & Lofthouse ' printed cover with the Apple logo aligned beneath the rear track-listing.

Matrix numbers: YEX 749-2 & YEX 750-1
Stamper codes: 9,12/OTH & 8/MTD
Disc weight: 137g
CONDITION
Disc
Labels: MINT
Perfect & 'as new' with no marks or wear to or around either centre hole.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Immaculate, 'factory-fresh' surfaces which are completely free from any surface marks or wear in strong daylight AND directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp. The only reason for holding back from a straight MINT grading is a few faint blemishes on side 2 which are a result of long-term inner-sleeve storage. Both sides of this pristine disc lie 100% flat on the turntable when playing, with no traces of dishing or warping.
Play: MINT
This disc was archived on receipt and not played by its original recipient. I have carefully played it once at volume and can confirm the sound to be flawless & 'as new' throughout.
Cover
NEAR MINT
A top-class example with a pristine, unscratched laminate where the only blemish is an impression of a few tiny letters and numbers where the cover has been used as a rest. however, these are not obvious and can only be made out in a certain light. Aside from that, this cover appears here exactly as it left the shops 41 years ago. All corners and both opening edges are completely unworn and apart from a small 'thumbnail' wrinkle on the rear panel all is 'as new'. Both seams and the fully worded spine are all smooth, unstressed and completely unworn.
