$

46

original Mono US Pressing of The Beatles LP "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" with red/white inner sleeve Catalogue Number MAS 2653

COVER: NM or M- /  The cover has suffered very little wear to the corners, edges, and seams. Tight, strong spine with very legible print. No splits on the cover's seams nor tears on the front or back covers. Inner gatefold is immaculate as can be seen from the pictures.
VINYL: VG /  The record is in very good condition. I've played this record only several times during its time with me and I can tell you it plays really well despite having sleeve marks and hairlines on both sides under strong light. Still has a nice sheen to both sides. Matrix numbers:  Side 1: MAS - 1 - 2653 F-11 Side 2: MAS - 2- 2653 H-10

My grading scale is:  Sealed (still in shrink wrap); NM (Near Mint); NM- (Near Mint Minus); EX (Excellent); VG+ (Very Good Plus); VG (Very Good); VG- (Very Good Minus); G (Good); and P (Poor).  If you ONLY collect "MINT" or "NEW" records, you should not bid on any item with any grade less than NM.  For almost all collectors, my NM- should not require any further "upgrade" for you.  For almost all collectors, my EX should be acceptable for your collection copy.  If you are an audiophile who cannot tolerate vinyl surface noise, you should only bid on records play graded as NM.  For most audiophiles, my EX play grade should be acceptable for your collection copy.  [PLEASE NOTE that I will not accept returns of SEALED records and I will not refund any part of your payment for a SEALED record.] 

Unless the winning bidder requests otherwise, the record will be placed outside of the LP outer jacket so that it will not damage the cover during transit.  

I will NOT be responsible for UNINSURED items lost, damaged or delayed during transit.  If you would like to pay for insurance, please contact me regarding the cost.
