THE BLACK AND YELLOW LABELS WHICH FEATURE THE SMALL 33/3 ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION. CLOSE INSPECTION UNDER A STRONG LIGHT REVEALS JUST LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS TO EITHER SIDE, THE LABELS ARE BRIGHT AND VIVID WITH PERFECT LETTERING . BOTH LABELS ARE CRISP AND EXCEPTIONALLY CLEAN AND FREE FROM ANY FADING.
THE HEAVY WEIGHT VINYL IS ALSO SUPERB... THIS HAS BEEN PLAYED YET IT ONLY DISPLAYS JUST VERY LIGHT WISPY MARKS AND THE ODD TINY NEEDLE MARK, MOST OF WHICH AR EONLY VISIBLE WHEN CLOSELY INSPECTED UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT, NONE ARE SERIOUS OR FEELABLE AND NONE AFFECT THE AUDIO. THE GLOSSY VINYL IS PERFECTLY FLAT WITH NO WARPING AND THERE IS NO NEEDLE LIFT WHEN IT IS PLAYED. THE BRIGHT PLAYING SURFACE HAS SUFFERED NO DULLING OR OTHER IMPERFECTIONS.
AUDIO IS FLAWLESS.... ONE CAREFUL PLAY BY MYSELF REVEALED A CLEAR AND CRISP PERFORMANCE. THERE IS NO CRACKLE TO EITHER RUN IN/OFF GROOVES OR TO THE TRACK GROOVES BUT NOTHING THAT INTERFERES WITH THE OVERALL LISTENING EXPERIENCE. THE VINYL PLAYS THROUGH WITHOUT ANY CLICKS, POPS OR JUMPS. THE MONO AUDIO IS STRONG AND VIBRANT AND WAS A REAL PLEASURE TO LISTEN TO.
THE CORRECT THICKER EMITEX INNER IS PRESENT AND IS NEAR MINT. APART FROM THE SLIGHTEST IMPRESSION FROM WHERE THE VINYL HAS IN THE SLEEVE THERE ARE NO OTHER SIGNS OF AGE OR HANDLING.
THE OUTER AND ORIGINAL EARLY E.J DAY SLEEVE IS AN EXCELLENT 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 MINIMAL SIGNS OF HANDLING AND IS STILL STRAIGHT. THERE ARE THE INEVITABLE CORNER BUMPS PRESENT AND A HINT OF EDGE WEAR PRESENT TO BOTTOM EDGE. THE REAR OF THE SLEEVE IS BRIGHT AND PREDOMINATELY WHITE AND FEATURES VIRTUALLY NO HANDLING MARKS ALL THE FLIPBACKS ARE PRESENT BUT THE BOTTOM FLIPBACK HAS SUFFERED SOME DISTRESS TO BOTH EDGES (MY ONLY REAL CRITICAL POINT OF THIS SLEEVE).THE SPINE IS PERFECT AND RIGID WITH NO WEAR AND 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.
ALL THIS COMES COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL CLEAR PLASTIC PROTECTIVE SLEEVE FROM BRIAN EPSTEINS RECORD STORE IN LIVERPOOL...THIS RARE SLEEVE IS IN SUPERB CONDITION
THIS IS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO AQUIRE ONE OF THE MOST COLLECTABLE BEATLES ALBUMS OF ALL TIME AND THIS COPY WILL CERTAINLY ENHANCE ANY BEATLES COLLECTION..... THE RARITY OF THESE THIRD PRESSING LABEL VARIATIONS CANNOT BE OVER EMPHASISED, THE APPEARENCE OF THE SMALL 33/3 TO THE LABELS MAKES THESE COPIES AS RARE AS ANY BLACK AND GOLD LABEL COPY.
