Description
This copy of Sgt Pepper comes complete with its original psychedelicsleeve and perfect condition cutout card. It is believed from researchingspecialist websites* to be a first pressing in stereo and plays verycleanly with hardly any crackle.
*1. First pressing. June01,1967. Black labelwith yellow logo and silver print. “The Gramophone Co. Ltd.” printed atthe start perimeter print and “Sold in U.K. subject…” text. With orwithout KT tax code on the label. Matrix numbers: Side 1: YEX 637-1; Side 2:YEX 638-1.
Yellow on black Parlophone label PCS 7027 Stereo dated1967 withno signs of spindle wear. Pressing matrix numbers are YEX 637-1 andYEX-638-1.
Cover condition: Front very clean with one very small 3mm nick in thecorner with the spine, and a few short faint creases in the laminate. The rearhas a couple of short creases in the laminate and a faint ring mark. The spineis very clean with just the smallest of shelfwear scuffs to top and bottom.Inside the gatefold the condition is excellent except at the fold on the spinewhere the laminate has creased, see photo.
Sleeve condition: Original psychedelic print, very clean apart from acouple of small age spots. The bottom edge is split in the centre for 15cmlength.
Disc: Glossy, flat and with slightest signs of being played ( a fewlight scratches mostly difficult to see except under strong light) but usingthe vinyl grading system it ought to be at least vg+. It plays very well indeedand only a couple of tracks have very minor crackle that I can hear, butremember it is over 50 years old!.
Overall in spite of my picky description, this is a superb example toown, and priced to sell.
I am the original owner and have probably played it no more than 20times since new. Sad to see it go, but I don't play it so someone else mustenjoy it.
Postage to UK, additional cost to overseas to be agreed.
