Description
The Beatles 1967 UK Strawberry Fields ForeverR 5570 *FACTORY SAMPLE* 1T/1GD
*Factory Sample*(EMI did not produce any demonstration discs for this single)
An excellent copy of this single. Strawberry Fields has one visible mark that produces a very light clicking during the mellotron intro, it is then inaudible as the music grows louder (please see last photo). Penny Lane has no noticeable marks. There are light marks around the spindle hole on both sides, the labels are otherwise excellent.
There is only very light background noise during playback. Could benefit from a professional clean.
The original parlophone sleeve is in great condition, there are some areas of staining within the image on the front - see photos. No writing, seam splits or tears.
Matrix, mother and stamper codes: Very low stampers Side 1: 7XCE 18415-1 1T
Side 2: 7XCE 18416-2 1GD

Record Collectors Grading system Mint (M) The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Very Good (VG) The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable Good (G) The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc Fair (F) The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. Poor (P) The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing Bad (B) The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler
