The record labels are in STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing and only a few light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in GREAT 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 has NO scratches, only 3 or 4 light hairlines, only 3 or 4 VERY light scufflines, only 2 or 3 ULTRA light TINY surface traces, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with only a VERY few light clicks/pops, NO jumps, NO sticks, only some VERY low level background crackle in a VERY few places (though mostly NONE), and only some VERY slight background sound on the gaps & run on grooves on the Beatles music side - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  There is also some VERY low level background sound on the orchestral side (virtually unavoidable on this LP!).  There is NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed) if not better!!!!  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 1st Press Black Inner sleeve which is BRILLIANT condition with NO edge splits AT ALL!!!!  The MEGA RARE 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Blank' Flipback Laminated MONO Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only a few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking), shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
