Cover: Garrod & Lofthouse (patents pending) 1st pressing 'mono' sleeve with laminated front and unlaminated rear. Has the triple flip-backs to the rear cover. 1st pressing Dr. Robert text on the cover (and on the label). In Excellent+ condition for its age. No writings/doodles or seam splits. Nice clear spine. The triple flip-backs are all in place with no missing pieces. The front cover is bright without the yellowing which is common with these covers. All in all, one of the best Revolver covers I have seen in many years.
Emitex (patents applied for) inner poly-lined sleeve: Near Mint.
Labels: Excellent+. KT Tax code. No writings or stickers. "Sold in the UK..." 1st pressing text. Dr. Robert text on the label - later pressings changed to Doctor Robert.
Vinyl: Play tested. Both sides look VG with feathering & hairlines but no feelable scratches. Plays even better. Minor background crackle - a little at the beginning of each side and occasionally a little in places - mainly between tracks and in quiet moments. No skips/jumps. Rates as VG+ to Near Excellent in places for playback. Not mint but very respectable. A testament to the durability of these Parlophone 1st pressing vinyl albums.
POSTAGE: £4 (UK) £8.50 (EUROPE - SIGNED FOR) & £12.50 (REST OF THE WORLD - SIGNED FOR)
