FULLY LAMINATED OUTER SLIP CASE This is the original fully laminated Garrod & Lofthouse outer slip case, designed by John Kosh. This example is still fully intact but does have some wear to the edges and some corners are split etc .The lainate is still very glossy with no lifting or bubbling and nothing more than a crease along the bottom edge. Overall still nice and presentable just let down a little by the corners (see-pics) VERY GOOD PLUS CONDITION OUTER TRAY & INNER TRAY Both outer tray and inner book housing tray are the original genuine issued ! As most will know that these are nearly always missing or badly ripped etc often replaced with the new manufactured re-issues. These are still worthy and serve their purpose allthough the inner tray has a tear at each end of the channel ! but has never been repaired in any way and still works fine when stored . Not the best example but still presentable, functional and Original !!! ( see-pics) VERY GOOD PLUS CONDITION BOOK 'Get Back ' This fantastic soft back / fully laminated book contains 164 pages of exclusive pictures and transcripts from the recording and filming of the album .Photos by Ethan A Russell and text by Jonathan Cott & David Dalton.
