Description
Please be aware that all records are VISUALLY graded only - all grades are given based on how they appear under my desk lamp - since I do not own a record player. I cannot guarantee that discs will be click and skip free, although any marks and scratches that might possibly cause such problems will be highlighted clearly in the description.

This auction is for a very rare export pressing of the Beatles UK single 'Hey Jude' / 'Revolution'.
Whereas the domestic UK pressing of Hey Jude was on the newly formed Apple label, EMI produced a very small number of copies on Parlophone specifically for export to countries that, I'm assuming, didn't have Apple registered as a record label or trademark. This particular copy went to Sweden as it comes complete with it's very rare, original Swedish picture sleeve!
These are very hard to find and rarely come up for sale, especially in their original picture sleeve!.
...
The original Swedish picture sleeve is holding up nicely for its age with a little wear and tear here and there. There's a little creasing in the fragile paper as you can see in the photos above but nothing too bad or serious. The top and bottom seams are both holding fine but the side seam has a small split in the middle, looks to be just under 2" long. The back is clean with just a little creasing and disc impression, but nothing bad or serious. Looking very nice! Disc (Visually Graded Only!!) : VG
I've graded this one low as the playing surface on side 1 has no sharp shine, instead looking pretty dull. I don't know if this was a manufacturing error or if a previous owner gave the surface a too-vigorious clean with too rough a cloth, but there's also some light scuffs and one heavier looking scuff at the 9 o'clock position. Side 2 does not have this dullness and, instead, as a beautifully sharp, crisp shine to it and looks an easy EX+ condition with nothing more than just some light, faint scuffs in a couple places.
.
The labels are looking great with bright, silver text and no rubbing, writing, stickers, tears etc. The Hey Jude label has been glued off-centre and half of the song title has disappeared under the pushout gap. Neither label really has any visible spindlewear and no whitening around the centrehole. Nice labels!

All records have been visually graded under a strong, 125W natural light desk lamp.
