Condition
(using Record Collectors grading system)
Vinyl (play tested) Generally, sound dynamics are excellent although with some (minimal) crackles on a few tracks. Occasional visible light scratches which do not impede or affect audio quality.
Side 1: Very Good (VG)
[Record Collectors definition: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch].
Minimal background crackle elsewhere. No clicks, skipping or jumping.
Side 2: Very Good (VG) Minimal background crackle. No clicks, skipping or jumping.
Side 3: Very Good (VG) Minimal background crackle. No clicks, skipping or jumping. Visible light scratch across track 1 which does not impede or affect audio quality.
Side 4: Very Good (VG) Minimal background crackle. No clicks, skipping or jumping.
All centre labels are are near Mint condition with clean clear text and minimal spindle wear.
Outer cover: Very Good (VG)
Cover is top loading and in very good condition, with the normal laminate bubbling around the embossed words “The BEATLES” and slight yellowing, which is normal for a sleeve of this vintage. Couple of small residue marks on the left near the spine. Some scuffing along the joint (fold) and at the corners and a couple of small scratches on the front near the bottom but otherwise good. A little edge wear on the front right edge but other edges fine although there is a little cracking of the laminate on the spine. Ubiquitous ring wear. An indented scratch just visible to the left of centre on the front has not penetrated the inside, so the vinyl is not affected in any way. The album serial number is very clean and clear. The back cover is clean, with no marks other than expected minor scuffing and yellowing. Very slight moisture stain on the inside fold (see photo) and also very slight stain on the front near the spine.
Inner sleeves x2: Very Good (G) and Fair (F)
Both inner sleeves are original die-cut black; one has two tears at the centre die cut hole (see pic) and both have slight creasing.
Inserts: Near Mint (NM). Includes the original photos of the fab four, almost mint, having rarely seen the light of day. No pinholes or other marks. Includes the original poster exellent condition, with no marks, pinholes or tears on the folds or yellowing.
