Please read everything carefully below so you know exactly the rarity you are buying.
Insanely low numbered and Embossed Original Mint 1968 U.S. LA pressing of The Beatles 'White Album'. This is the rare and highly sought after pressing containing all 7 printing errors on the labels. Upon release of the album, John Lennon noticed these mistakes and had them corrected immediately on future pressings but not before some of these extremely rare error copies had already entered the marketplace. With the Insanely LOW number 0406965 and the Crazy LOW matrix numbers, this is one of the earliest White Album known to exist today !! The matrix numbers are proof that this is the very first pressing after George Harrison destroyed the previous recordings because he was appalled at the sound the day he walked into the LA plant. The matrix stamps B34 and earlier were to be destroyed.
Go research online, and you'll be amazed at the story of the Lost Harrison White Album.
The cover is MINT STUNNING front, back, inside and out. NO seam splits, NO writing, NO stickers, NO glue residue, NO ring wear, NO rips/tears, NO pen/marker marks, and a *MINT* inner/outer spine !! Just a Breathtaking copy !!
The records are very glossy and shows play/scratches. With this being such an early press, it's understandable to show that kind of play after 52 years. The labels are still nice with NO stickers. NO WRITING on any of the record labels, and NO WRITING on the front, back or inside the record sleeve! It comes with all 4 MINT heavy stock portrait photos and a gorgeous ORIGINAL *MINT* poster with the lyrics. Includes the original inner sleeves (Original solid sleeve with no cut out label center that were used very early then changed to the more common cut out center)
If you prefer a lower numbered, all MINT copy with MINT LPs, I have one on here for sale: Item # 184262819172
ALL the photos you see above are of the EXACT treasures you will receive !! You really don't want to miss this one, as these low matrix numbers were very scarce with few known to exist today. Insanely low numbered White Albums with Mint cover, ALL Rare 7 Errors, with NO seam splits, all 4 photos and original poster, are getting more scarce each year.
Don't wait as this Beatles White Album will not last long !!
Here are all 7 song errors on the labels:
1. "Bungalow Bill" instead of "The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill"
2. "Obladi Oblada" instead of "Ob-la-di Ob-la-da"
3. "Rocky Racoon" missing the second "C" in Raccoon
4. "Goodnight" instead of "Good Night"
5. "Revolution No. 1" instead of "Revolution 1"

Here's very invaluable information on how The Beatles White Albums were numbered, and the meaning behind all the sequences...
The first 25 White Albums were numbered with an “A” prefix and then a series of zeros preceding the number (e.g. A0000009). There are always seven digits following the “A” so if it was a single digit number it would be preceded by six zeroes or if it was a two digit number it would be preceded by five zeroes. It is not known what the “A” was indicative of (it may mean “printed in America” or “Apple” but neither is confirmed).
Numbers 26-99 were three digit numbers preceded with a zero and no prefix.
Numbers 100 through approximately 209,999 were preceded with the correct number of zeroes to make them a seven digit number (with no letter prefix)
Beginning around 210,000 to up near 590,000, they were preceded by a zero and had an 'A' prefix.
Later copies up to about 1,350,000 remain at seven digits using a leading zero if necessary and are prefixed with a large dot.
The next batch from 1,350,000 up to some point around 2,000,000 are prefixed with an “A” but it's a thinner “A” then used earlier.
From 2,000,000 to around 2,250,000 some are prefixed with a large dot and some with the “A”
From 2,250,000 up to 3,000,000 the numbers are prefixed with the abbreviation for number (i.e. “No.”). On some of these the “o” in “No.” is raised with the period below it instead of beside it, and some with a large 'A'.
For the final numbers over 3,000,000 the numbers are prefixed with a wide “A"
