Description

PLEASE READ FIRST!

I'm having to make this even clearer as people are still buying records I'm grading low and as a 'collection filler', and then complain about the audio quality when they try to play them. If you're looking for a copy to listen to then please look elsewhere.

As I VISUALLY GRADE my records I cannot guarantee that discs will be click, skip and noise free (although any marks that may cause such problems will be highlighted in the description).

All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.

THE BEATLES
The White Album

Rare Stereo 1st Press!

On offer here is an original 1968 stereo 1st press copy of the Beatles legendary LP The White Album. This particular copy is numbered 0498033 and comes complete with the original black inner sleeves and the four photos. Sadly the poster is not included.

Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.

Inner Sleeve Condition The inner sleeves are in G+ condition. Both inner sleeves are included and have a little wear and fraying - especially at the mouth edge. Looking okay but do have creasing and a little tearing in places. Inserts Condition The photos are in VG+ condition.

(VISUALLY GRADED) Disc 1 is in VG condition. The playing surface is nice and clean has has a fair amount of light scuffing along with some slightly heavier looking scuffs - nothing nasty looking, though.

Disc 2 is in VG++ condition. The playing surface is clean but with some light scuffing and marking. Nothing serious or heavy, though.

Label Condition The labels on disc 1 are in EX+ condition. The labels are lovely and clean with no damage and just some light spindlewear.

The labels on disc 2 are in EX+ condition. The labels are beautifully colourful and clean with just some light spindlewear. Top labels!

My Vinyl Grading:

MINT No true preowned disc can be mint. The highest I will ever grade a disc is NM+/M- if it looks untouched and unplayed, but the MINT description will only be for records I personally know have never been played (i.e. I personally bought from new) or for copies that are still sealed. NEAR MINT (NM) For discs that look near flawless and which may have just the slightest, barely visible little whispy marks here and there. EXCELLENT (EX) For discs that still retain a brilliant, clean shine but does have some light scuffs here and there. VERY GOOD (VG) For discs that still look clean and have a nice shine to them, but do have a fair amount of light scuffmarks and/or some light scratches. GOOD (G) For discs that look like they have been loved and have a fair amount of scuffs and surface scratches. Not in terrible condition, but would look like it would play with a lot of crackle. FAIR (F) For discs that may have some life left in them but are pretty trashed with numerous surface scuffs and heavier scuffs and scratches etc POOR (P) For discs that are unplayable and look completely trashed. Discs like this would only ever be offered if they were insanely rare.
