THE BEATLES
'LET IT BE'
This EXCELLENT UK 'PXS 1' BOX SET comprises all original components comprising: outer slipcase, both inner trays, book & LP with red Apple logo on the rear panel and a disc with '-2U/-2U' matrices.
Condition
Outer Slipcase
EXCELLENT
This carefully handled & correctly stored example is an extremely clean, bright & in-shape and retains an undamaged high-gloss laminate all-round. The front of the case bears just two small 'thumbnails' creases (towards the left edge), but no other creasing or wear to the front or rear panels. All the edges are sharp & clean with just a the lightest touch of wear but certainly no large 'pushes', or any tears or feathering. Both ends are clean & intact with really little to fault anywhere.
Trays
Outer: VERY GOOD
Strong, in-shape & unsquashed with the only significant fault being a 1cm tear to one of the flaps. Otherwise it is strong and clean with just slight rubbing to the outer folds and tree tiny flecks of missing paper to the lower edge but no futher damage or wear.
Inner: EXCELLENT +
Given its fragility, this most delicate component of the set is in remarkable condition. It is unsquashed & completely in-shape with no tears or other major signs of wear. All the fold-over edges are intact and completely undamaged.
Book
EXCELLENT +
A near perfect example which has been barely if ever opened/read. Both front & rear covers are clean & glossy & the spine is uncracked and unbent with a perfect uncreases laminate. The credits page 8 are printed and there are no loose or missing pages.
Record
RED Apple logo on rear cover.

Matrix: YEX 773-2U & YEX 774-2U

Disc weight: 134g
Labels: EXCELLENT +
Visual: EXCELLENT +
Superb bright, clean & glossy surfaces which are unmarked in daylight, revealing just a few wispy paper hairlines directly under halogen light.
Play: EXCELLENT
This copy has received just some careful play awhich apart from some minor background on 'The Long & Winding Road', plays throughout without any major audible faults or wear.
LP Cover
EXCELLENT
A fine strong & clean example with an undamaged high-gloss laminate which displays just an inevitable faint disc impression but no other signficant wear. All corners are clean & square and apart from a few tiny pushes, both opening edges are clean & sharp. Both seams and the spine are straight, unsplit and totally unworn.
Inner-sleeve
VERY GOOD +
Some normal handling & storagewear but no writing, tears or splits.
