Description
If my design looks familiar it's because I used to sell with the eBay username mikeharb83, but have had to abandon that account as I am no longer able to sell with it.
PLEASE READ FIRST!
Please be aware that I VISUALLY GRADE my records as I do not have access to a record player. I cannot guarantee that discs will be click, skip and noise free (although any marks that may cause such problems will be highlighted in the description).
All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.
JOHN LENNON / YOKO ONO
The Wedding Album
Mega Rare UK Apple Press!
On offer here is an extremely hard to find original UK Apple press of the John Lennon album 'Wedding Album'.
Initial copies came issued in an elaborate box set. This listing, however, is for the more common standalone release of the record.
This was Lennon's third record that erred on the side of avant garde / experimental. It completely flopped in the charts, selling dismally and failing to chart. Only a tiny, tiny number of copies were ever issued (the 1/R and 1/A stamper codes on this copy show that it was one of the first 900 or so pressed!) and sold before the album was deleted and made unavailable from the Apple catalogue and, as such, is nearly impossible to find today!
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.
Title John Lennon - The Wedding Album Year of Release 1969 Catalogue Number SAPCOR 11 Label UK Apple Tax Code on Disc - Sleeve Manufacturer Garrod & Lofthouse Side 1 Matrix Number SAPCOR 11A-1 Side 2 Matrix Number SAPCOR 11B-1 Side 1 Stampers 1 / R Side 2 Stampers 1 / A Sleeve Condition The sleeve is in FAIR/GOOD condition. The sleeve is holding up okay overall with your usual light creasing and wear and tear to the edges and corners. The sleeve would have been VG but there's an unfortunate split right down the right seam of the cover - it looks like a previous owner cut down it to make the record easier to remove from the gatefold cover. Inner Sleeve Condition - Inserts Condition - Disc Condition(VISUALLY GRADED) The disc is in EX+/NM- condition. Has a really sharp, clean shine to it and nothing more than a few very light, faint little scuffs here and there. Great condition! Label Condition The labels are in NM condition. Both labels are clean with nothing more than a few light whispy spindlemarks.
All records have been visually graded under a strong, 125W natural light desk lamp.
Records are posted out tracked and insured (where applicable) to comply with eBay and PayPal seller protection policy.
The P+P costs given on each auction are for that auction only. If you win more than one auction please wait until I've
sent you out an amended invoice to combine postage.
All LPs will be mailed out in a strong, corrugated cardboard LP mailing box with the LP outside the sleeve and extra
sheets of corrugated cardboard will be used where applicable.
My Vinyl Grading:
MINT No true preowned disc can be mint. The highest I will ever grade a disc is NM+/M- if it looks untouched and unplayed, but the MINT description will only be for records I personally know have never been played (i.e. I personally bought from new) or for copies that are still sealed. NEAR MINT (NM) For discs that look near flawless and which may have just the slightest, barely visible little whispy marks here and there. EXCELLENT (EX) For discs that still retain a brilliant, clean shine but does have some light scuffs here and there. VERY GOOD (VG) For discs that still look clean and have a nice shine to them, but do have a fair amount of light scuffmarks and/or some light scratches. GOOD (G) For discs that look like they have been loved and have a fair amount of scuffs and surface scratches. Not in terrible condition, but would look like it would play with a lot of crackle. FAIR (F) For discs that may have some life left in them but are pretty trashed with numerous surface scuffs and heavier scuffs and scratches etc POOR (P) For discs that are unplayable and look completely trashed. Discs like this would only ever be offered if they were insanely rare.
