The earliest pressings came with a 13-month 1970 calendar with photographs of John and Yoko plus poems and writing excerpts taken from Lennon's In His Own Write and A Spaniard in the Works, and Ono's Grapefruit books. Some of the calendars were bound with wire, some were bound with plastic, while others were bound with a saddle staple. -This variant pressed at Capitol's Jacksonville plant, as identified by "0" in the run-outs. -Labels incorrectly state "Recorded in England" -"Mfd. By Apple Records, Inc." is on the side 2 label bottom perimeter. No individual track lengths listed for Side 2, only total side time of 17:38 First catalog number is on the spine, second is on the labels. We have two New Old Stock original copies of this album from the same purchase.  They were both sealed copies, but this one looked as if the calendar was slipping down into the sleeve and not at the edge of the opening side.  We have checked disc and there is no damage whatsoever, this also means we were able to ascertain the pressing matrix details so we know it is a Jacksonville pressing. So, this is a Mint Old Stock copy that we the seller opened to check contents.  If you want a sealed copy to never open, please see our other listing for this title, if you want a mint original pressing to play, this is the one to purchase because you will never need to upgrade again.

MINT SEALED OLD STOCK USA FIRST PRESSING VINYL ALBUM WITH CALENDAR AND HYPE STICKER.

The UPC code you see in the photo is an internal stock keeping one of ours, it was not on the original sleeve as they did not come with UPC codes in the 1970s.

MATRIX:  ALTHOUGH WE ARE UNABLE TO CLARIFY, WE BELIEVE THIS TO BE THE JACKSONVILLE PRESSING AND IT WILL HAVE SIMILAR MATRIX TO THE OPENED COPY (FROM THE SAME BATCH) WHICH WE HAVE LISTED FOR SALE - SO WILL BE SOMETHING LIKE: O SW 1 3362 Z5 #1  /  SW 2 3362 Z9 #1 B.

NEW OLD STOCK LPS ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH AS DESCRIBED, THEY ARE NOT RETURNABLE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES UNLESS STILL SEALED AS SHIPPED.  IF YOU WANT US TO OPEN IT PRIOR TO SHIPPING TO CHECK CONTENTS AND SHIP WITH LP OUTSIDE SLEEVE, PLEASE EMAIL US BEFOREHAND. 

Why buy a first or early pressing and not a re-issue or a ‘re-mastered’ vinyl album?

First and early pressings are pressed from the first generation lacquers and stampers. They usually sound vastly superior to later issues/re-issues (which, in recent times, are often pressed from whatever 'best' tapes or digital sources are currently available) - many so-called 'audiophile' new 180g pressings are cut from hi-res digital sources…essentially an expensive CD pressed on vinyl.  Why  experience the worse elements of both formats?  These are just High Maintenance CDs.  There are exceptions where re-masters/re-presses outshine the original issues, but they are exceptions and not the norm.

First or early pressings nearly always have more immediacy, presence and dynamics. The sound staging is wider.  Subtle instrument nuances are better placed with more spacious textures. Balances are firmer in the bottom end with a far-tighter bass. Upper-mid ranges shine without harshness, and the overall depth is more immersive.  Inner details are  clearer.

On first and early pressings, the music tends to sound more ‘alive’ and vibrant.  The physics of sound energy is hard to clarify and write about from a listening perspective, but the best we can describe it is to say that you can 'hear' what the mixing and mastering engineers wanted you to hear when they first recorded the music.
