This complete package is graded as follows: All four record labels are graded in very CLEAN, UNWORN and BRIGHT near mint condition, showing only a few very minimal and LIGHT spider marks, but certainly no spindle wear or major faults to report. Record 1 (Side 1 and 2) are graded in GLEAMING excellent plus condition – LOVELY High Gloss Shiny Vinyl, showing only the lightest of wispy hairlines. Record 2, (Side 3 and 4) are graded in BRIGHT excellent condition, again very shiny and Bright Vinyl, with only lightest signs of play. There is a small surface mark visible on side 4 across the first track, but this DOES NOT affect the play.
The playing quality of the album is IMPRESSIVE and all sides play VERY WELL with No hiss, NO clicks, NO skips, and NO Distortion, with only very very little light background noise on a couple of the tracks.
The Top Opening and numbered laminated Gatefold sleeve is graded in very good plus condition – a strong and firm sleeve, which is still bright, showing just moderate age discolouration, which can only be expected, and light record storage wear. The wording ‘The BEATLES’ and the low number of 0013678 are very clearly printed and this wording shows no deterioration. All the edges of the sleeve are in respectable shape, with just some mild corner bruising. The spine laminate shows some cracking and lifting to the laminate – this is very common with a gatefold sleeves. The inside of the gatefold is in respectable shape showing only minor signs of wear. The photos are in excellent plus condition – no tears or handwriting, the black inner bags are in excellent condition and the poster is in excellent shape.
