On offer here, is a wonderful and complete original 'White Album' package, with rarer mono discs, which has been well looked after and comes with all components showing evidence of careful handling
*
Audio from both these discs is superb throughout
The huge mono mix bursts from the speakers with undiminished power
There is the odd dust crackle/pop here and there but nothing to spoil the overall performance
Needless to say, all tracks play through with no skips or stalls
The vinyl surfaces still retain a beautiful gloss lustre, with no groove whitening and just a few very light surface lines, in daylight, mainly on disc one and just one faint line on disc two
Both discs have been handled carefully and are visually excellent
*
All the labels are free from any writing or sticker residue, only displaying the usual collection of spindle trails
*
The G & L, top opening, cover, # 0265079, is in very good condition. It has age toned, fairly evenly, to a creamy/beige and does have a small area of missing laminate in the middle of the spine. However, the spine text is clearly legible under it's laminate layer, which is in perfect order. There are no tears or panel damage and only a few very mild pressure lines, mainly on the back surface. This really is a very strong example of a cover which is generally found in poor condition
*
The correct, black single die-cut inners are in superb condition, with all seams completely intact. One is close to perfect, the other having more creasing and a single 3cm tear line from its centre hole but still wonderful examples of these easily damaged, flimsy paper, items
*
The four photos and 'lips' lyric poster are near perfect, with no damage or writing
*
All in all, a great addition to any collection, in lovely condition and complete with all original components
*
I have other Beatles items listed, please take a look

PLEASE NOTE; International signed for postage from the UK, insured and sent in a secure mailer with stiffeners costs a minimum of £9.00 for a single and £13.00 for an album.
