	£		360
	$		477

Becoming increasingly difficult to find in this all round IMPRESSIVE condition, this is an opportunity to purchase a COMPLETE and ORIGINAL UK **FIRST Issue** of The Beatles 'Let It Be' Vinyl Box Set.

Released in 1970 on the APPLE label, the BOX SET contains the following:

An Original 1970 UK **1st Issue** 'Let It Be' Vinyl LP on the Dark Green Apple Label, with 'Apple Records' label rim, protected in its Original 1st Issue Fully Laminated Garrod & Lofthouse Sleeve displaying the correct Red Apple Logo on the Reverse of the Sleeve, together with its Correct White 'Made in England', 'Patent No. 1,125,555' inner sleeve. The album matrix and stampers are: Side 1: YEX 773-3U/Side 2 matrix 774-2U. Stampers are Side 1: '2','GAL'/Side 2: '3', 'GPR'.

Also included in this COMPLETE Package is an Original GET BACK book. This book is packed with previously unpublished photographs of The Beatles taken by Ethan A Russell from the Get Back Sessions.

The book sits in its original outer Black Card Perforated Tray and is protected by a further inner black card Support.

All this fits into its original Fully laminated Let It Be Outer SLIP CASE.

Grading Assessment:

Both sides of the Record labels are in very carefully preserved near mint condition. Both labels are bright, fresh and unworn, showing just a few barely visible wispy spider lines. Both sides of the Vinyl disc are in near mint condition. There are NO scuffs, or scratches to the Vinyl, with just a couple of light wispy hairlines on side 1 and none on side 2.

The fully laminated Garrod & Lofthouse 1st Issue Sleeve is in strong excellent condition, mirror gloss laminate front and back, with Firm and neat edges and an Undamaged spine, with the wording 'The Beatles' ' Let It Be', 'Apple Records', 'PCS 7096' clearly readable. The corners show some mild bruising - nothing serious - and some light inevitable record storage wear, however, no heavy creasing or any other major wear evident to the sleeve. The Laminated Get Back Book is a near mint example. Remarkably there are NO loose, damaged or missing pages. The Laminate to the front and reverse of the book is Ultra Glossy and the book binding tight, this is unusual, as it is a common fault for the pages of this book to become detached from the spine binding. The spine edge of the book is Undamaged and reads 'The Beatles Get Back' - A LOVELY example.

The Original outer Black Card Protective cardboard support, with its correct rounded edges, supporting the Get Back Book is in Great Shape and COMPLETE with no tearing or any missing pieces. All that is visible is a little creasing to the outer edges. The Perforated Card Inner Tray in which the Get Back book sits in, is also in COMPLETE condition, and in tact, with just a little difficult to avoid stress tears to the corners.

The Outer Laminated Slip Case which protects the complete Set is one of the FINEST we have seen in excellent plus condition. The Outer Slip Case is STRONG and FIRM, with NO tearing, weakening or Crushing to any of the edges and corners, this is unusual due to the heavy weight of the Get Back book and the album that it has had to carry. The Laminate on the back panel of the Slip case is remarkably shiny with just a small area of light rubbing to the right hand side towards the top, but this is not major in any way.

Sound Quality:

The Playing quality of the Let It Be album is equally as impressive, and the album plays without any skips, jumps, or distortion, and it is obvious from the visual and audible grading that this Vinyl Disc has barely been played. The album sits 100% flat on the turntable with No dishing or Warping
