THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!! AND ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION!!!! JUST LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!! USUALLY EVERY WHITE ALBUM YOU SEE HAS AT LEAST 1 MAJOR FAULT (LIKE A MISSING PART, DAMAGED INNERS, BADLY SCRATCHED RECORDS OR HEAVILY YELLOWED COVER FOR EXAMPLE). BUT NOT THIS ONE!!!! THIS WHITE LP IS IN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITION AND EVERY PART OF THIS AMAZING DOUBLE LP HAS NO MAJOR FAULTS OF ANY KIND!!!!

IT IS ALSO IN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITION AND IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS!!!! NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS DOUBLE LP IS EVEN MORE SPECIAL FOR 2 VERY IMPORTANT REASONS!!!! FIRSTLY THIS LP HAS 1/1/1/1 1ST PRESS MONO MATRIX ENDINGS AND A LOW NUMBERED COVER '0074254' - SHOWING THIS IT IS ONE OF THE 'EARLIEST' MONO 1ST PRESSINGS EVER AND WOULD HAVE BEEN PRESSED WELL BEFORE THE RELEASE DATE!!!! AND SECONDLY THIS LP HAS SUPERB CONDITIONED INNER SLEEVES!!!! NOW THIS MAY NOT SEEM LIKE MUCH TO 'SHOUT ABOUT' - BUT JUST TRY FINDING BOTH BLACK INNERS FOR THIS LP IN THIS AMAZING CONDITION!!!! THE INNER SLEEVES ON THIS LP ARE SO OFTEN THE WEAK POINT - THEY WERE MADE OF VERY WEAK SOFT PAPER AND MOST INNER SLEEVES TURN UP IN TERRIBLE CONDITION - WITH SPLITS, RIPS, AND FRAYING AROUND THE OPENING EDGES. BUT NOT THIS LP!!!! BOTH BLACK INNER SLEEVES ARE IN AMAZING CONDITION WITH NO DAMAGE AT ALL!!!! AND AS WELL IS THAT - THE WHOLE LP IS IN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITION AND IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS!!!! JUST LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!! THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL UK MONO 1st pressing from 1968 and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! This is the ORIGINAL UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press DARK Green Apple Labels, 1st Press 'Sold in the UK' text, 1st Press Black Apple inners, 1st Press Poster, 1st Press 4 Colour Prints, and a 1st Press TOP opening numbered (0074254) FULLY Laminated Flipback 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Cover!!!! The records are pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The matrix numbers are XEX 709-1, XEX 710-1, XEX 711-1 & XEX 712-1 (the 1st Press matrixes)!!!! The Cat. No is PMC 7067/68 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press DARK Apple labels (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 STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a VERY few light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! 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 I will grade each record in turn. Record 1 has NO scratches, only 1 VERY light hairline, only 2 or 3 light scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! Record 1 must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!! Record 2 has NO scratches, NO hairlines, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! Record 2 must grade visually Excellent++ if not better!!!! ALL SIDES RETAIN EVERY BIT OF THEIR ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is great to find that the playing of the records is almost as STUNNING as the visual!!!! They play with NO nasty loud pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle, and only some low level background sound on the run on grooves and VERY quietest parts of the music!!!! There is NO groovewear & NO distortion either!!!! The records must overall grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!! Believe me these records are NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! BOTH records also come in their ORIGINAL Black inners which are in AWESOME condition and are IMPOSSIBLE to find like this!!!! The Poster and the 4 Colour Inserts are in AWESOME condition (see pictures) and they dont look to have EVER left the cover!!!!
The 1st Press Gatefold 'TOP OPENING' Laminated Flipback NUMBERED Cover is in STUNNING condition!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, NO ringwear, NO grubbyness, only slight corner wear, only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking), VERY shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! The TOP opening edges are beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the inside of the cover is in STUNNING condition with NO writing, PERFECT flipbacks, STUNNING shiny laminate, NO grubbyness, and NO yellowing!!!! The number on the cover front is VERY slightly 'faint' - but this is NOT from any wear and is EXACTLY how this LP was pressed back in 1968!!!! Not only that but this White Album is VERY White looking indeed with barely ANY yellowing AT ALL!!!! The cover must grade Excellent(Minus) and is EXTREMELY hard to find in this condition!!!! THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!
