Description
THE BEATLES WHITE ALBUM PMC 7067/7068
MONO!! TOP LOADER!! 1968!! 1ST PRESS!!
No. 0517977
THAT SHOULD OF TICKED ALL YOUR BOXES!
IF YOU'VE NOT BOUGHT FROM ME BEFORE THEN LET ME FIRST ASSURE YOU THAT I WILL DESCRIBE THIS ALBUM EXACTLY AS IT IS AND PROVIDE EXTENSIVE PHOTOS SO YOU WILL HAVE NO NASTY SUPRISES!!!
BUT I THINK AS YOU READ ON YOU'LL BE MORE THAN PLEASED WITH THIS STUNNING EXAMPLE!!!
FIRSTLY THIS ALBUM IS A "MONO" EXAMPLE WHICH STRAIGHT AWAY CLEARLY INDICATES BEING A FIRST PRESS AS THE MONO VERSION WAS ONLY PRODUCED ON THE FIRST PRESSINGS AND THEN NEVER AGAIN UNTIL 1982, BUT THE 1982 MONO RE-ISSUE HAS A LIGHT GREEN APPLE LABEL AND THE THIN, FLIMSY VINYL AND OBVIOUSLY NO "SOLD IN UK" OR TAX CODE !!
WHAT YOU WILL BE BIDDING FOR HERE WAS ACTUALLY MADE IN 1968 AND CONSIDERING THIS, ITS IN AMAZING CONDITION INDEED!!
IF YOU'VE EVER BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH TO HEAR BOTH MONO AND STEREO VERSIONS THEN YOU WILL KNOW THAT THE ORIGINAL MONO RECORDINGS ARE SUCH A DIFFERENT SOUND, MORE DISTINCTIVE AND CLEARER, ALTHOUGH TO BE FAIR, ANY VERSION OF THE "WHITE ALBUM" IS EXCELLENT.
CONDITION:
POSTER;
THIS IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO TEARS OR CREASES. NO FOLDS WHERE THERE SHOUD'NT BE,NO SELLOTAPE AND STILL GOOD IN COLOUR.
INNER SLEEVES;
THESE ARE STILL IN GOOD CONDITION BUT DO HAVE CREASING AND SOME TEARS, ALTHOUGH NONE OF THEM ARE MAJOR.
TWO POLYLINERS ARE ALSO INCLUDED AS THATS WHAT I CHOOSE TO STORE THEM IN AS THEY ARE MUCH SOFTER AND KINDER TO THE VINYL ITSELF!!
AND CONDITION SHOWS !!!
MAIN SLEEVE;
THE MAIN SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION ALTHOUGH YOU WILL SEE THAT IT DOES HAVE SOME SLIGHT SPINE WEAR AND LAMINATE LIFT ON SPINE.
THE SLEEVE ONLY HAS VERY, VERY SUBTLE YELLOWING, A BIT MORE NOTICEABLE NEAR THE SPINE.
IT STILL RETAINS AN AMAZING GLOSSY, DEEP SHINE, THE CORNERS ARE ALL VERY GOOD AND THERE ARE ONLY VERY SLIGHT SIGNS OF CREASING NEARER THE TOP WHERE THE RECORDS HAVE ENTERED AND EXITED (PHOTOS WILL SHOW ALL OF THIS). THERE ARE NO FOLDS, MAJOR CREASES, RIPS,TEARS OR SEAM SEPERATION!!
THERE ARE NO PHOTOS WITH THIS ALBUM.
THERE IS ALSO NO WRITTING OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER ON THIS ALBUM.
