Fantastic 1969 Beatles UK LP. This was the Beatles' 12th LP, released on the 26th September. It was also the last official Beatles release that was recorded by them. Staying at number one for almost 18 consecutive weeks, it was only knocked off by The Rolling Stones' "Let It Bleed."

Vinyl:
144g-QUALITY VINYL
EX-!
 Lovely vinyl, only a couple of very light marks to her, which are superficial and barely heard on playback....When playing her all the way through, I noticed a wonderfull deep and rich audio reproduction free from sticks and any skips too.
Even the run-ins were lovely and quiet-as can be heard in the clip provided. The only soft and light background pops I hears were on Because and a bit of You Never Give Me Your Money.
JUST HAD THE UTTER JOY OF LISTENING TO HER
SUPERB
The Moog was lovely and clear on Maxwells Silver Hammer-INCREDIBLE!
Rich deep audio with high peaks and deep bass.
*FLAT AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN*


Labels:
EX+!
There are only a small handful of very light spindle marks-evident ONLY when angling towards the light.
With barely any central hole wear.
NO WRITING
  NO "Sold in the UK..." text.
Outer text begins: "Apple Records all rights.."
"Mfd. in U.K." text. The labels are nice and vibrant.
This is the 1st pressing DARKER version of this Apple label.
The last song credit DOES NOT HAVE "Her Majesty" on the Side 2 label.
*VERY FRAMEABLE* Interestingly there appears to be a slight edge around 5mm in from the outer edge-similar to contrat pressings..?..This is more noticeable on side 2.

Cover:
EX!
The cover of this LP is BEAUTIFUL.
 The alignment of the Apple Logo on the back is inline with the text. The spine is lovely, clear and strong.
Just 3 very small and insignificant crescents of spidering to the front laminate, near the opening.
NO WRITING
NO RIPS
NO SPLITS
Only some incredibly gentle rubbing to the corners.
DEEP CLEAN AND CLEAR COLOURS.
Tiny spot to the top (I have photographed this).
Please see the detailed images for yourselves and click on them for even larger images and more detail.

FRAME THIS BEAUTY!


Inner:
VG.
 Original, early PATENTS PENDING white die-cut sleeve.
Also has the "MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN" text to the bottom too.
Small split to the sides and one larger one to the bottom.
Only light creasing and some spots of ageing-don't we all?!


THIS IS A LOVELY COLLECTABLE PIECE IN GREAT COLLECTABLE CONDITION.
GRAB THIS BEAUTY FOR ITS LOOKS AND GREAT AUDIO REPRODUCTION!
