The Beatles
Magical Mystery Tour
1967 1st Press USA Capitol MONO (IMPORTED)
(Professionally cleaned with Pro-Ject VC-S MkII Vacuum Record Cleaner)
Being released in the US in 1967, The Beatles didn't see eye to eye with the record producers providing an Lp format with 11 tracks, to be released 11 days BEFORE the UK EP edition in the UK-which had only 6 tracks...
Catalogue Number: MAL-2835
Matrix Numbers:
Etched
Side 1: MAL -1-2835-F9
Side 2: MAL -2-2835-G10
East Coast SCRANTON 'I AM' triangle pressing.
Vinyl:
HEAVYWEIGHT 158g
EX+!
Flat & shiny...Even has the lovely hue of a petrol rainbow in the vinyl.
I have just listened to her all the way through and found a superbly clean and clear audio with barely any background noise at all. She just carries the faintest of faint wispy marks to her from simple removal and replacement of the inner sleeve.
*TOP QUALITY AUDIO REPRODUCTION*
The Cover:
EX!
HAS THE VERY RARE ORIGINAL STICKER TO THE FRONT STATING:
"Specifically Imported By E.M.I. Records" in gold....Very hard to find these!
"PRINTED IN USA" in a small circle to the inside gatefold.
-The labels credit BMI on all the songs.
-Inside jacket credits Maclen Music Inc., BMI.
-Has "No you're not" under "I Am the Walrus" in bold block letters.
-Includes 24-page booklet...The central pages have come away from the outer page of the booklet, but have stayed perfectly together with the original staples, so remians very solid indeed.
The Spine states MONO...Also has the faint text to the bottom left corner to the back of the cover....
"Manufactured By Capitol..."
EXCELLENTLY strong and LEGIBLE spine.
Lovely THICK ORIGINAL CARD.
Pasted on cover...Just some light rubbing throughout, but nothing to worry about.
NO WRITING
GATEFOLD
The Booklet:
VG(+).
ALL THERE! With just a very few tiny spots of foxing and light wear near the staples...The inner pages have become separated to the outer cover of the booklet...but nothing terrible. Each page is glorious in colour and still intact.
Gorgeous Technicolour pics in the 24 page booklet
The labels:
EX+
Lovely and clear without any fading.
Simply EXCELLENT and with barely any hole wear or spindle marks.
Inner:
EX.
White poly-lined inner which has certainly done her job by looking after this slab of vinyl for all these years!
States 'Made In England' with the small box at the bottom stating 'Plastic bags can be dangerous..' Some slight discolouration to one side where it has been resting near the staples for all these years.
ALL IN ALL THIS IS AN INCREASINGLY RARE COPY OF MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR IN THE FIRST PRESSING STATE, IMPORTED IN FROM THE USA AND IN MONO!
THIS WOULD MAKE A SUPERB, TOP NOTCH ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION.
FANTASTIC AUDIO AND ALL COMPLETE TOO!
