APPLE LABEL

 

SAPCOR 2 (613012)

Cover:  Laminated 1st UK pressing 'pinched spine' cover made by Technink (with John & Yoko naked) is Excellent+. No writings, doodles or seam splits. Has the 'Made in Merrie England' text on rear cover - n.b. only the mono 1st pressing covers had this text printed on the front sleeve.

 

 

 

Brown paper cover: VG+. These outer covers are very fragile. This one is better than most. It has a small name written in top corner of rear cover. Please note that this is actually a 1968 1st USA outer wrapper - the UK release did not have such a cover. I have added this USA outer wrapper simply as a free bonus for the winning bidder.

 

 

 

Black die-cut Apple inner sleeve: Excellent+.

 

 

 

Labels: Near Mint. These dark green Apple labels have the 'TRACK' logo on both sides. They also have the "Sold in U.K. subject to....." text and the 'Mfd. in U.K.' text. 

 

 

Vinyl:  Play tested. Looks VG and plays VG(-) with some crackle throughout.

Gradings.......

 

Mint - The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality.

Excellent - The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is little lessening in sound quality.

Very Good - 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.

Good - The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches.

Fair - The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise, it may even jump.

Poor - The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc

Bad - The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
