Condition:
Lovely condition. The disc is glossy and clean with some light surface marks only, VERY GOOD PLUS! It plays very nicely indeed, without issue and obviously no skip/sticks, no repeat clicks, and no loud obtrusive pops. Side 1 begins with a very quite lead-in, there is little-to-no background noise/crackle throughout, and between tracks is nice and quiet also, EXCELLENT! Side 2 continues in the same way with occasional light background crackle audible in-between a couple of the tracks only, EXCELLENT-! It's a great listen without disruption from defects. The 1st version 'gold' sleeve with Photo: Angus McBean correctly aligned to begin under the last 's' of ''songs' above it as per the very 1st version sleeves, is in fantastic condition. A glossy, clean front with no ring wear, no stains, no tears or writing. Light crease lines from handling only. Fully readable spine, sharp edges, some wear to the bottom right corner seam below the photo credit. A very clean back. EXCELLENT-! Complete with its original tracing-paper Emitex inner sleeve which is clean without splits, EXCELLENT! This comprises a fantastic listening & collectors condition complete 1st UK stereo press of The Beatles debut album from its original release year in the summer of 1963!
