$

91

I am clearing out some duplicates of some BEATLES and BEATLES-RELATED LPs from my collection. So, please check my other auctions.

IN THIS AUCTION: 

·       “WEDDING ALBUM” by John Ono Lennon & Yoko Ono Lennon

·       This is Apple Records SMAX – 3361.

·       This LP/box set was issued October 20, 1969.

·       I refer to this a “box set” because, while it contains one vinyl record, it came with numerous inserts as additional contents of the box which are:

1)   A copy of the Gibraltar Marriage License pasted inside the box lid

2)   12” x 12” book entitled “The Press”

3)   1.5” x 6” strip of photos of John & Yoko

4)   3.5” x 5’ postcard

5)   12’ x 36” two-sided poster featuring drawings

6)   11.5” x 11.5” photo of a slice of wedding cake, translucent bag to hold the wedding cake photo with “Bagism” printed on one side)

7)   24” x 36” two sided poster of drawings labeled “The Wedding”

8)   The vinyl record inside a gatefold cover

·       This WEDDING ALBUM BOX SET is COMPLETE with ALL CONTENTS PRESENT. Plus each item is identified as CORRECT for this box set by the “SMAX – 3361” printed in the lower corner of each item that make up the contents. This is the LP number for items in the VINYL Box Set. (Note: I have run across some Vinyl Wedding Album Box Sets that included replacement items from the Cassette or 8-Track Box sets. You can identify such items switched out between sets by the “8AX – 3361” printed on the items included in the 8-track box set or “4AX – 3361” printed on the items included in the cassette Box Set.  

·       As for condition:

1)   The GATEFOLD LP COVER and the VINYL RECORD are NEAR MINT. (In fact, the vinyl appears to be unplayed with no marks on the vinyl and no tell-tale spindle trails.)

2)   The OTHER ITEMS/CONTENTS OF THE BOX are also NEAR MINT.

3)   The BOX would be STRONG VG to maybe WEAK VG+ CONDITION with some overall wear; however, I prefer to let the images speak for the condition of the box along with the description below:

A) The front lid shows light overall wear. The bottom 2 corners have splits but could be repaired. I have shown images of all 4 corners.

B)  The box bottom also has 2 split corners that have been mended with non-acidic archival document mending tape. The box bottom shows some overall aging. The box bottom bows inward slightly.

·       Information provided is from Perry Cox’s Price Guide for the Beatles American Records.

·       It’s a GREAT JOHN LENNON ITEM COMPLETE on VINYL now almost 45 years old!!!
