COVER
This is an original and correct first issued tri-flapped GARROD & LOFTHOUSE cover with the mid-sized mono logo ( E J D covers were not used until 65 for this lp ),very clean and bright example with nothing more to fault than a tiny bump to 2 corners , 3 tiny stress creases from the spine edge , 1 small thumb push-crease towards the opening edge and a small tear in the lower rear flap.These are all extremely minor faults which many would probably not even mention.Otherthan these teediest points this cover is a truly fine example.Used from the rarer yellow/tan coloured card often used on the please please me album , which often causes a little tonning to the front panel and flaps ! the laminate retains a vibrant glossy shine and looks super and the spine is still strong with fully readable text ,very clear and bright .The rear panel is also clean and bright with no nasty stains, writing etc Perfect ! overall a super clean example of this genuine earliest issued cover ( see-pics ) EXCELLENT CONDITION !
