"WHITE ALBUM" APPLE PMC 7067 / 7068 RELEASED ORIGINALY 1968 THIS PRESSING JUNE 1981
STAMPERS 5 4 3 4 2 6 4 3 (ALL NUMBERS AT THIS TIME)
MATRICES -2 -2 -4 -2
VINYL RECORDS AND THE LABELS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION DEEP GLOSSY SURFACES WITH PRISTINE CLEAN LABELS ITS HARD TO MAKE OUT ANY SPINDLE MARKS EVEN UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT
THE COLLAGE POSTER LOOKS LIKE ITS NEVER BEEN OPENED SO WAS UNFOLDED ONCE JUST FOR THIS PHOTOGRAPH
THE PICTURES AGAIN ARE IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION AND ARE PRINTED ON HEAVIER CARD THAN THE ORIGINALS
WHITE DIE CUT INNER SLEEVES AGAIN ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION WITH THE ADDED BONUS OF SHAPED LINERS FOR THE VINYL
SIDE OPENING GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS UNLAMINATED ,WITH EMBOSSED BEATLES TITLE ON THE FRONT ,SPINE IS UNCRUSHED WITH A LIGHT CORNER BUMP TOP RIGHT
GATEFOLD INTERNAL FACES ARE BRIGHT AND CLEAN AND TEXT AND IMAGES ARE ALL LEGIBLE
THE SLEEVE REAR DOES SHOW SOME RINGWEAR AND BEING UNLAMINATED DOES SHOW A LITTLE DISCOLOURATION I THINK FROM THE WAY IT HAS BEEN BEEN STORED
A TEST PLAY WAS SUPERB QUIET RUN INS AND SPACES (WERE APPLICABLE) AND CLEAN AND CLEAR AUDIO
WE DO PLAY TEST ON A SIXTIES HI-FI FOR REVIEW ( THESE PRESSING'S USED THE ORIGINAL 60's MONO MASTERS ) SO WE CAN ONLY COMMENT ON WHAT WE HEAR ,DIFFERENT SYSTEMS CAN GIVE A DIFFERENT RESPONSE AND EVEN THOUGH THIS COPY IS FROM 1981 IT IS NOW FORTY TWO YEARS OLD
THIS IS AN UPDATE ON SIDE 4 LABEL ,I WAS MADE AWARE OF IT BUT COMLETELY FORGOT WHEN LISTING, THE RECORD SIDE FOUR DOES PLAY IN MONO BUT UNFORTUNATELY FOR SOME STRANGE REASON IT HAS A STEREO LABEL ,APOLOGIES AGAIN FOR MISSING THIS ERROR IN THE ORIGINAL LISTING
