THR BEATLES THE BEATLES aka "THE WHITE ALBUM" 1968 FRANCE PRESS
VINYL: VG PLAY GRADE: VG COVER: VG+ NOTES: NUMBERED EMBOSSED ORIGINAL FRENCH PRESSING OF THE MONUMENTAL DOULE ALBUM!!!! Prized & sought by collectors & fans alike, NUMBERED EDITIONS HAVE BEEN STEADILY INCREASING IN PRICE & VALUE. Many collectors seek CATALOG COMPLETIONS and here is good FRENCH EDITION NUMBERED & EMBOSSED! Some info here...this particular pressing HAS THE 1968 FRENCH "SMO" LABEL NUMBERS & MACHINE STAMPED "YEX" MATRIX SERIES. The vinyl does show marks & scuff but maintains a nice gloss after cleaning and PLAYS IN GRADE with some noise/artifacts throughout however overpowered on harder/louder songs with PLEASING BOLD DEEP FIDELITY. Interestingly the cover retains the UK catalog "PCS/PMC" numbers on spine and has the English credits inside under the song titles but DOES HAVE THE REMNANTS OF THE BADGED STICKER FOR FRENCH SALE INSIDE THE GATEFOLD. The cover itself shows a lot of 'swirl' as is common to laminate and has some other moderate wear but is still VERY NICELY PRESENTABLE & SOLID with EMBOSSED GROUP NAME & 'ENGRAVED' STYLE NUMBER SHOWING 0022775 - overall a nice TOP LOADER / FLIPBACK LAMINATE STYLE COVER. There are no photos included as inserts with this copy. That's the information I have for you BEATLES COLLECTORS & FANS. PLEASE MESSAGE ME IF YOU HAVE OTHER QUESTIONS. SELDOM SEEN AT AUCTION FROM USA SELLERS SO GOOD LUCK & YOU DECIDE THE PRICE WITH NO RESERVE!!!
