On offer here is a very rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Beatles called 'Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band' and is a MONO UK 1st pressing!!!! HOWEVER THIS IS A MEGA RARE 'EARLY' 1ST PRESSING WITH A 'WIDE SPINE' COVER!!!! WIDE SPINE COVERS WERE ONLY ON THE VERY EARLIEST 1ST PRESSINGS OF 'SGT PEPPER' AND WERE QUICKLY CHANGED DUE TO DIFFICULTY IN PRODUCTION - AND WERE QUICKLY CHANGED TO THE NORMAL SPINED COPIES AS THESE WERE EASIER TO PRODUCE. THIS COPY IS IN AWESOME CONDITION AND IS TOTALLY COMPLETE WITH 'CUT-OUT' INSERT AND 'PSYCH' INNER SLEEVE. DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL MONO UK 1st pressing from 1967 and is in STUNNING condition for its age!!!! IT IS ALSO TOTALLY COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL 'CUT-OUT' INSERT, AND 'PSYCH' INNER!!!! This is an ORIGINAL 1st Pressing with a Yellow & Black Label, 'Sold in the UK' text, a KT tax code and the 'Gramophone Company' edge text. The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The matrix numbers are XEX 637-1 & XEX 638-1. The stamper codes are 1/MO & 3/R - very VERY early stampers!!!! The Cat. No is PMC 7027 on the ORIGINAL Yellow & Black Parlophone label (see picture) and is a MONO 1st pressing!!!! All the tracks are Pure quality Beatles at their best!!!! Any fan of The Beatles, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!! The record labels are in INCREDIBLE condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks!!!! TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES OF THE CENTRE HOLE!!!! TOTALLY AWESOME!!!! THIS RECORD HAS CLEARLY ONLY BEEN PLAYED 4 OR 5 TIMES AT THE MOST!!!! The vinyl is in STUNNING condition for its age. Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, 1 hairline which DOES NOT sound in ANY respect, and only VERY of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! DONT under estimate this record - it still has the sheen of MINT vinyl and clearly has BARELY been played AT ALL - so DONT let that one hairline which DOESNT sound put you off this STUNNING record!!!! AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK IN EVERY RESPECT!!!! It is great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!! IT PLAYS TOTALLY STUNNINGLY with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, and NO crackle!!!! There is NO groovewear either and NO distortion. The record must grade visually Very Good++++ if not Excellent(Minus) but the playing grade is easily FULL Excellent!!!! THE RECORD PLAYS STUNNINGLY!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 'Psych' inner which is in AWESOME condition!!!! The ORIGINAL 'darker' colour 'cut-out' insert is in PERFECT uncreased condition!!!! The MEGARARE 'WIDE SPINE' Gatefold FLIPBACK Cover is in STUNNING condition!!!! THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST 'WIDE SPINE' COVER I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!! LOOK AT THE PICTURES - can you EVER get any better???? It has NO edge wear, NO ringwear, NO spinal wear, NO corner wear, barely ANY creases (Cover retains ALL its original flatness) and NO writing!!!! The opening edges are RAZOR straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the inside of the cover is in STUNNING condition with NO writing, NO grubbyness, and NO yellowing!!!! The cover also opens with that lovely 'crackle' that you only get with VERY little used covers!!!! There is also NO splits, NO rips, and NO tears!!!! The cover must grade MINT(Minus)!!!! HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!!
