The Beatles
ABBEY ROAD
Original 1969 UK Stereo 1st Pressing w/ Corrected Apple Cover
No "Her Majesty" On Labels
PARLOPHONE PCS 7088 : MATRIX NOs YEX-749-2/YEX-750-1
Stampers: 3 RLG / 7 RPA
Vinyl ~ EX-
The labels look superb with signs of some spindle trails only around the centre hole, indicating careful playback. The record surfaces looks superb! It has only slight signs of light, wispy paper sleeve hairline marks under intense light and looks really nice on both sides. The only notable demerits are three marks on Side 1. Two are non-feelable scuffs directly south of the label over the first 2 tracks and the third is a non-feelable stylus mark going across the surface into the deadwax. Luckily these appear to be mostly superficial and only on the surface; The only place I could hear any effect on the audio was some light rotational ticks in the first half of "Something". Otherwise, the record looks superb and it has the sound quality to match! It's a truly wonderful sounding pressing and overall I'm grading it as Excellent - Cover ~ VG+
The original cover is in Very Good + condition. It looks great and feels great to hold! It has some light ring wear that only shows under bright light, the odd thumbnail mark in the laminate and some light foxing on the opening but overall it's in really nice shape. It's difficult to come across one as nice as this!
Unfortunately no original black inner sleeve is present. A high quality archival inner sleeve has been included.
Any questions or information needed, please ask! I'm happy to help :)
