Description
THE BEATLES - 'WITH THE BEATLES'

Both labels omit the 'Sold in UK..' text but have 'Parlophone Co. Ltd..' rim texts.
The side 2 label has the scarcer 'blocked' layout & the 'Dominion. Belinda' publishing credit for 'Money'.
Matrices: XEX 447-7N & XEX 448-7N
Stamper codes: 2,10/GLM & 3,10,17/GHP
Vinyl weight: 170g
Housed in a pristine 'Garrod & Lofthouse' printed tri-flipback mono cover, complete with original rice-paper lined EMI inner-sleeve
CONDITION
Disc
Labels: EXCELLENT +
A bright & clean pair with some minor wear to the paper around the side 2 centre hole but just a single spindle trail which is on side 1.
Visual: EXCELLENT +
Exceptionally clean, deep-gloss playing surfaces which are unmarked in strong daylight, bearing only some harmless wispy marks from the inner-sleeve beneath halogen light.
Sound Quality: MINT
A flawless sounding copy which will not disappoint.
Cover: NEAR MINT
A truly beautiful example of this cover which hardly ever turns up in this type of condition.
Carefully stored in a non-smoking environment, all aspects are clean, un-yellowed and fully intact.
The front panel retains a mirror-like front laminate bearing just a single 'thumbnail' wrinkle but no trace of any ring/storage wear.
All corners are in great shape with just tiny bruises to the upper two.
Both opening edges appear completely untouched.
Given the poor quality or card used, it is extremely rare to see a rear panel of this LP in this condition.
Apart from a few very faint marks in the lower right corner, it is flawless.
Al flipbacks are clean, fully intact & undamaged.
Both seams and the unworded spine are unstressed and unsplit.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT +
Clean & crisp with just a few gentle storage wrinkles but no writing, tears or seam splits.
