On offer here, is an outstanding example of this original UK release
Just a look at the quality of the vinyl surfaces tells you that the disc has only ever been played on top equipment
*
The Vinyl
Visually: Excellent+ (Ex+) - beautiful deep black surfaces - both sides look near pristine - just a few wispy handling lines - looks as good as the photos
Audio quality: MINT- (M-/M-) - Plays like new - stone cold silents run ins - nothing but pure music - no static - not one pop (listened twice to make sure)
*
The Cover
Tri flipback, in exceptional condition - the front panel is beautifully smooth with no thumb bends by the opening - the pinched ends spine is perfect - square corners and perfect laminated flips - unprotected back panel has toning and some mild spotting - there is a red X, top left corner
*
The Labels
Near perfect with vibrant text - there is a small circular depression next to the hole which is from manufacture - spindle trails both sides but mainly around the hole
*
Inner Sleeve
Correct 'Made In England' issue - rice paper lined - perfect, just wrinkles and age toning
* -------------------------------------------------------------------
I have held this disc against reflected daylight and both surfaces display nothing more than a few very faint hairlines - Under strong halogen light there are wispy handling lines which are common to any vinyl being removed and returned to the inner sleeve - Viewed normally, the vinyl looks spectacular and would be very hard to upgrade
Sound quality is close to mint from start to finish
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I have other rare Beatles discs listed now - so please take a look
