The Beatles
Abbey Road
WITHOUT 'Her Majesty'

Fantastic 1969 Beatles UK LP. This was the Beatles' 12th LP, released on the 26th September. It was also the last official Beatles release that was recorded by them. Staying at number one for almost 18 consecutive weeks, it was only knocked off by The Rolling Stones' "Let It Bleed."

Vinyl:
QUALITY HEAVY 146g
VG. Lovely vinyl, with only light marks to her and a little dust in the grooves. A light and occasional background background noise evident...Yes there are marks to the vinyl-but nothing to make her jump or skip.
I have just listened to her all the way through and found a wonderfully rich and found the sound reproduction really is quality, which I am sure would improve with a gentle professional clean.
FLAT & SHINY
NO SKIPS OR JUMPS
(on my Technics deck...!)


Labels: EX-.
There are quite a few light spindle marks evident, but these are only seen when angled towards the light...Barely any hole wear!
  NO "Sold in the UK..." text.
Outer text begins: "Apple Records all rights.."
"Mfd. in U.K." text. The labels are nice and vibrant.
This is the 1st pressing DARKER version of this Apple label.
The last song credit DOES NOT HAVE "Her Majesty" on the Side 2 label.

WOULD DISPLAY WELL

Cover: VG.
The cover of this LP is SOLID.
The alignment of the Apple Logo on the back is inline with the text.
The spine does have a split.
Just a few lines of spidering and some gentle knocking to the corners....nothing to worry about at all.
NO WRITING
VERY CLEAN

Please see the detailed images for yourselves and click on them for even larger images and more detail.
SOLID COPY-WOULD FRAME WELL


Inner: EX. It is the ORIGINAL die-cut inner with the following text to one side:
"Patent No. 1,125,555"
NO splits or tears.
Small biro number to one side-that is it!

THIS IS A LOVELY COLLECTABLE PIECE IN SOLID CONDITION-WOULD IMPROVE WITH A GENTLE CLEAN BUT SHE IS ALL TOGETHER AND ALL ORIGINAL

WOULD FRAME INCREDIBLY WELL
