Condition
Labels: VERY GOOD +
Bright & clean with numerous spindle marks but no major faults.
Visual: VERY GOOD +
Both surfaces of this well-looked after copy are clean and glossy with just a few light surface lines (not scratches) visible when examined in strong daylight. Close and careful inspection of both sides directly under a halogen desk lamp reveals a sparkling rainbow shine and some insignificant wispy paper hairlines but no other significant marks or wear at all.
Play: VERY GOOD
This copy has received frequent but careful play and although some light background crackle is present (mostly on side 1), there are no clicks, pops or any other significant or major audible fault anywhere. The superior alternate mix of 'Tomorrow Never Knows' with is differently mixed sound effect and extended fade-out plays without fault.
Cover
VERY GOOD +
A clean & bright example of the rarer variety displays just light/normal handling & sotragewear with no major faults. The front panel is clean and white with just a few spine wrinkles & slight corner rubbing but undamaged opening edges. There is a small area of ringwear on the rear panel behind John's head but no writing, missing paper or other marks. All flipbacks clean & intact and both seams and the spine are unstressed & undamaged.
Inner-sleeve
VERY GOOD +
Slight age-toning but no tears or splits.
