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
Let It Be
Rare Original Apple Press in Parlophone Export Sleeve!
This listing is for an original 1st press copy of the Beatles LP Let It Be. This record has the original dark Apple label but the cover is the original export sleeve which features the Parlophone logo on the back and export catalogue number on the spine of PPCS 7096
These sleeves were only ever manufactured in tiny, tiny quantities to go with the UK export copies that were printed on the Parlophone label. I guess that a few of these sleeves ended up being used for domestic press discs to keep on top of demand, due to an error, or a few were left over when the Parlophone export issue was deleted from the catalogue.
Either way, the original export sleeves are insanely hard to find!
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.

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.
