LABEL MISPRESS – SIDE 2

THIS IS THE VERY RARE PRESSING WITH NO 'DAY IN THE LIFE' CREDIT!! THIS IS ONE OF THE RAREST OF THE BEATLES DOCUMENTED MISPRINTS!! BASICALLY IF YOU LOOK AT THE SIDE 2 LABEL (SEE MY PICTURES) YOU CAN SEE THAT THE LISTING FOR SONG NUMBER 6 ('A DAY IN THE LIFE') IS MISSING!!

This label variation with the missing song "A day in the life" was made only for a very short time before the error was discovered and the not yet delivered records were destroyed.

CONDITION: - important please read…..

This is where it gets hard. I am not a dealer or collector and therefore do not know how to grade the condition of sleeve or LP’s accurately. I no longer have a turntable so can not play them to comment on the audio quality. I will describe the condition to the best of my ability and with honesty and photos. Do note I do have 100% feedback on ebay and have never had complaints about miss-descriptions. I am based in Colchester UK, and am happy for anyone to come round to see the LP before bidding.

Condition:

Label Side 2 (see photo below)

Very Good condition except the small tear across the 'O' in  PARLOPHONE. Some Light spindle marks. 2x small stains above the 'E' in PARLOPHONE. 

Enlargement of tear below:

Label Side 1 (see photo below)

Very Good condition. Some Light spindle marks. A couple of small stains the same as side 2.

Sleeve Condition: 

The sleeve is in very good condition. There are no noticeable splits, tears, marks or writing. The plastic laminate has a few small 'ripples', front and back. Inside is very good. The spine has been flattened with a crease along the middle. Edges and corners show the most of the wear but in my opinion great for its age.

Vinyl Condition: 

I can only give a visual description because I don't own the equipment to test it. The record has obviously been played and handled quite a bit. It has noticeable surface marks, and some light/medium scratches. In my experience there are a few scratches that would be noticeable when listening. The vinyl still has a nice black shine and is not warped at all. Below are some photos where I have tried to include examples of the surface marks/scratches.

I am based in Colchester, Essex UK and am happy for anyone to view the LP.
