Description

This Still Sealed LP is Something New by The Beatles (Capitol ST 2108). It is factory sealed in shrink wrap; it has never been opened or resealed. The LP inside has never been played and I assume its condition to be mint or near mint.

 

The album cover itself is in excellent condition. The shrink wrap is completely intact, with two small air holes. On the front top right is a round green price sticker which shows the price marked down from the manufacturer’s list price of $5.98 to “our low price” of $3.67 (I’m not sure who/what “our” refers to). The cardboard cover itself contains no cuts, punch holes, or drill holes. The seams are completely intact. There is a slight ½-inch vertical dent in the cardboard 3 inches in from the top left edge of the front. At the bottom of the spine is a wavy wrinkle or dent, which you can see in one of my photos. There are 4 tiny white chips (or maybe bits of white paper stuck on) 3 inches apart down the far left edge of the front. These look like some kind of artifact of the manufacturing process; they are underneath the shrink wrap (see my regrettably blurry photo of one of these). The cover shows definite ring wear from a long storage period. There are no stains, mold or mildew spots, or water damage.

 

The number 12 appears next to the RIAA seal in the lower right corner of the back jacket. This number indicates the plant that manufactured the cover slick. Though one cannot always date the record from this number, it’s likely that this particular copy of the record was manufactured in the late 1960s. (The album was originally released in 1964.)

 

See photos for a list of the song tracks on the record.

 

Thanks for reading, and good luck bidding. I'm happy to answer questions.

 

I do ship worldwide. I also combine shipping, and I’m selling a couple of other items at the moment, so please take a look.

 

Please note that I accept returns, but not if the album's shrink wrap has been opened.
