THE BLACK AND YELLOW LABELS WHICH FEATURE THE SMALL 33 1/3 ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. CLOSE INSPECTION UNDER A STRONG LIGHT REVEALS JUST LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS TO EITHER SIDE. THE LABELS ARE BRIGHT AND VIVID WITH NEAR PERFECT LETTERING BOTH LABELS ARE CRISP AND CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY FADING. SIDE TWO LABEL FEATURES THE EMBOSSED "ZT" TAX CODE.

THE HEAVY WEIGHT VINYL IS ALSO EXCELLENT... THIS HAS BEEN PLAYED AND THEREFORE IT DOES DISPLAY SOME LIGHT WISPY MARKS AND SOME NEEDLE MARKS, HOWEVER NONE ARE SERIOUS OR FEELABLE AND NONE AFFECT THE AUDIO BUT ONE ON SIDE ONE DOES EXTEND ACROSS THE VINYL. THE GLOSSY VINYL IS PERFECTLY FLAT WITH NO WARPING AND THERE IS NO NEEDLE LIFT WHEN PLAYED. THE BRIGHT PLAYING SURFACE HAS SUFFERED NO DULLING OR OTHER IMPERFECTIONS.   

AUDIO IS SUPERB.... ONE CAREFUL PLAY BY MYSELF REVEALED A CLEAR AND CRISP PERFORMANCE. THERE IS SOME MILD CRACKLE TO BOTH RUN IN/OFF GROOVES AND TO THE ODD TRACK GROOVE AND ALSO TO SOME OF THE QUIETER PARTS BUT NOTHING THAT INTERFERES WITH THE OVERALL LISTENING EXPERIENCE. THE VINYL PLAYS THROUGH WITH ANY CLICKS, POPS OR JUMPS. THE MONO AUDIO IS STRONG AND VIBRANT AND WAS A REAL PLEASURE TO LISTEN TO.     

THE CORRECT EMITEX INNER IS PRESENT AND IS EXCELLENT. IT DOES SHOW THE INEVITABLE LIGHT CREASES CAUSED BY THE VINYL SITTING IN THE INNER OVER THE YEARS BUT THIS IS NOTHING MAJOR. THERE IS ONE TINY HANDLING MARK TO ONE SIDE. THE INNER IS CRISP, INTACT  AND STILL ITS BRIGHT WHITE COLOUR.

THE OUTER AND ORIGINAL EARLY E.J DAY  SLEEVE IS A RESPECTABLE EXAMPLE. FEATURING THE CORRECT LARGE "MONO" LOGO AND OFFERING A VIBRANT AND EXTREMLEY GLOSSY FRONT LAMINATED PANEL WHICH DISPLAYS JUST LIGHT EDGE WRINKLES AND SOME THUMBNAIL CREASES.THE OPENING EDGE SHOWS SOME SIGNS OF HANDLING BUT IS STILL STRAIGHT. THERE ARE THE INEVITABLE CORNER BUMPS PRESENT, THE ONLY ONE OF ANY SIGNIFICANCE IS THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER, THERE IS SOME VERY MILD EDGE WEAR PRESENT TO BOTH TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES. THE REAR OF THE SLEEVE IS STILL VERY  CLEAN AND BRIGHT AND FEATURES A FEW LIGHT HANDLING MARK (FAR LESS THAN WOULD NORMALLY BE ACCEPTABLE). THE TOP AND SIDE FLIPBACKS LIE PERFECTLY FLAT WITH JUST ONE CREASE BUT THE BOTTOM FLIP BACK HAS SUFFERED FROM SOME LIGHT CREASEING.THE SPINE IS PERFECT AND RIGID WITH SOME LIGHT WEAR BUT ALL WORDING IS READABLE. THE SLEEVE OVERALL IS EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN WITH BRIGHT DEEP COLOURS AND ALL LETTERING IS PERFECT. THE SLEEVE IS OF COURSE FREE FROM WRITING AND IT TOTALLY INTACT.

THIS IS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO AQUIRE ONE OF THE MOST COLLECTABLE BEATLES ALBUM OF ALL TIME
