IMPRESSIVE EXAMPLE, ALL COMPONENTS 100% ORIGINAL, TOTALLY COMPLETE WITH FIRST ISSUE VINYL LP, RED APPLE LOGO SLEEVE, OUTER SLIP-CASE, OUTER & INNER BOOK TRAYS, AND GET BACK BOOK!!

In Summary:

‘LET IT BE’ was the The Beatles FINAL UK Studio Album released in 1970. First issues were released as a LAVISH VINYL/BOOK BOX Set. The few found in COMPLETE and IMPRESSIVE condition throughout (such as this one listed here) are now becoming INCREASINGLY COLLECTIBLE. Due to the fragile construction of the slip case and inner trays that support the book, a vast majority of these Vinyl Box Sets became damaged and incomplete.

The Box set contains the following:

  • An Original FIRST ISSUE ‘LET IT BE’ Stereo Vinyl LP in its Original First Issue RED Apple Logo Sleeve
  • A Large Format Original GET BACK Book,
  • An Original Protective Perforated Black Card Inner Tray, PLUS Original Black Card Outer tray,
  • An Original Laminated OUTER SLIP-CASE, again in IMPRESSIVE condition.
  • Also comes with its Original Detached Price Sticker (see next scan)
  • Detailed Item Description/Condition:

    Becoming increasingly difficult to find now in COLLECTIBLE and COMPLETE condition, this is a SCARCE opportunity to purchase a 100% ORIGINAL UK First Issue for The Beatles ‘LET IT BE’ VINYL Box Set. Released in 1970 on the APPLE label, the BOX SET contains the following:

    An ORIGINAL 1970 Twelve Track FIRST ISSUE UK Apple ‘LET IT BE’ 12" STEREO Vinyl LP on the Dark Green Apple Label, with ‘Apple Records’ label rim, and with ‘An EMI Recording’ and ‘Mfd in the UK’ printed to both record labels.

    Both sides of the Record labels are in SUPERB near mint condition. A CLEAN, UNDAMAGED Set of record labels, with nothing more than a few faint centre spider trails.

    Both sides of the Vinyl disc are in STRONG excellent condition, BRIGHT, UNWORN Vinyl Surfaces, showing no more than a few light surface hairlines. There are NO scuffs or deep scratches.

    Side 1 matrix: YEX 773-2U and Side 2 YEX 774-2U.
    Side 1 stampers: 1/GDP and Side 2: 2/GGH.

    Audio Quality:

    The album plays EXTREMELY WELL through ALL 12 tracks, without any skips or clicks.

    The album comes in its ORIGINAL White inner bag, printed ‘Made in England’ and the ‘Patent No: 1,125,555’, which is in excellent plus condition. There are NO tears, NO seam splits, NO handwriting to the inner bag, just some inevitable light age discoloration and mild creasing.

    The Vinyl LP is housed in its ORIGINAL First Issue Fully Laminated Garrod & Lofthouse Sleeve displaying the RED Apple Logo to the Reverse of the Sleeve, and printed ‘An EMI Recording’ beneath the Red Apple.

    The fully laminated Garrod & Lofthouse First Issue Sleeve is a SUPER excellent plus example, MIRROR GLOSS laminate to the front and back of this IMPRESSIVE NEAT, FIRM Sleeve. All there is to mention is mild record indentation and two corner bruises to the top and bottom of the opening edge. The spine edge is UNDAMAGED and clearly printed 'The Beatles' 'Let It Be', 'Apple Records', 'PCS 7096'.

    There is an ORIGINAL Large Format GET BACK book, laminated to the Front and Reverse. This SUBSTANTIAL book is packed with previously unpublished photographs of THE BEATLES taken by Ethan A Russell from the Get Back Sessions.

    The Laminated ‘GET BACK’ Book is a STUNNING example and looks in BRAND NEW condition. All the inner pages are mint. Surprisingly, there are NO loose, damaged or missing pages - the book is usually quite prone to the pages becoming dislodged due to the inappropriate glueing method used for the binding of the book, but not on this one. The Laminate to the front and reverse of the book is ULTRA GLOSSY, and the book binding TIGHT and UNDAMAGED. The spine edge reads 'The Beatles Get Back' – A LOVELY example.

    The book is stored in its ORIGINAL Black Card PERFORATED Inner Tray and is in REMARKABLE excellent plus condition – It is obvious that the book has not been taken in and out of its ‘slot’ very often as these delicate trays are usually so prone to a lot of wear and tear. This one does NOT have ANY of the usual tearing to any of the stress areas.

    …..And is further protected by an ORIGINAL Outer Black Tray with two Rounded Corner Flaps, which is in RESPECTABLE excellent condition, with only a small tear to one of the edges and just some rubbing/wear marks visible to the edges and corners.

    ….All the contents of the Box Set slide into an ORIGINAL FIRST ISSUE Garrod & Lofthouse ‘Patents Pending’ Fully laminated LET IT BE Outer SLIP CASE.

    The Original Outer Laminated SLIP CASE, which protects the complete Set is in excellent condition. STRONG, FIRM and VERY GLOSSY, with NO tearing to any part, and only light wear to the top and bottom edges and four corners.

    From our vast experience as a Worldwide BEATLES specialist, we RARELY now come across this COLLECTIBLE Beatles Box Set in such overall IMPRESSIVE condition. Most we see are either damaged or incomplete. Becoming INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT to find in this VERY NICE condition!
