This is a very nice uk original beatles mono numbered white album,the cover unlike most copies is very white but what makes this even rarer is that his has a WIDE SPINE!!
Cover
The original top opening Garrod & Lofthouse gatefold cover which is fully laminated with internal flipbacks is in Very good++ condition,it has no stickers or writing,the only major damage is 2 tears on the top of the back cover (see scan).
Front:Has the low number 0208925 embossed,it as stated is very white..There is no laminated damage just some edge creases and slight ring wear.The corner tips are ever so slightly rounded but still nice!!.Running down the spine there is slight ageing but this is very minimal (if unsure please see close up scan and zoom in)
Back:same as front..with no laminate damage..some edge creases and slight ring wear.At the top there are 2 tears (1cm and one 5mm..roughly)
Inner Gatefold::Clean and bright with no major damage
Seams:The bottom seams are unsplit and are really nice
Spine:The W-I-D-E S-P-I-N-E is nice has some wear and little bits of laminate breaking but all the text is clear and readable
Poster
The Garrod & lofthouse "lipstick" poster/lyric sheet is in Good+ condition,it has some tears
Records
Disc 1(sides 1/2) labels
The labels which have the "sold in uk.." above the hole and "an E.M.I recording" text are very clean and grade Excellent++/Near mint there are some light spindle marks around the hole..no damage
Disc 1(side 1/2)vinyl
The vinyl which is unwarped has full gloss with no groove wear and no deep fingernail scratches is in nice condition,in daylight it looks in excellent condition but under strong light you can see some marks/hairlines..grades Very good..strongly graded!!
Both sides play well with no sound distortion and it does not stick or jump there are just bits of static crackle in places and a few light clicks but nothing that overshadows the music
Disc 2(sides 3/4) label
The labels are in Near mint condition the same as disc 1 with light spindles,side 4 is "KT" stamped
Disc 2(sides 3/4) vinyl
Again the vinyl is unwarped with full gloss and no groove wear,looks again excellent but under strong light has marks but no fingernail scratches,grades Very good..strongly graded!!
Again this plays with some static and light clicks in places but does not stick or jump
neither disc plays with loud crackle throughout and is a really nice playing copy
