Description

SUPERB CONDITION 4th PRESS ON MAR 15, 1966, AT THE SCRANTON PRESSING PLANT - JACKET, INNER SLEEVE, AND LP!
Capital ST 2047.  It has these features:  RIAA #3 is stamped at lower-right corner of back cover, denoting a Modern Album, Long Island, New York print (East Coast), Tan "Beatles" Title (East Coast), NO George Martin credit on back, title credits - ASCAP (Side-2, Track-1 & 3), the rest all BMI.  The matrices are:
Matrix / Runout (Runout side A): ST-1-2047-W1 IAM & Matrix / Runout (Runout side B): ST-2-2047-A3 12 IAM &
Jacket with miniscule edge and corner wear, no marks - if you look real close you can see the beginnings of a ring front jacket.  The border around the paste-on of the front cover is age-toned; there is no paste-on on back cover but the border is also age-toned.  I HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH AN UNBLEMISHED COVER.  The LP is found in an original Capitol inner sleeve, presumably as issued with this 4th Pressing.  The discogs listing does not discuss the proper inner sleeve.  The sleeve is unsplit with no tears or marks.  The LP is removed from the inner sleeve and stored in a separate clear plastic sleeve.  The LP LOOKS QUITE PLAYABLE with a single faint unfeelable scratch over the two sides, I'll conservatively grade in the VG++ to NM range, closer to NM.
