Description
The Beatles Abbey Road Stereo Vinyl LP PCS 7088
First press 1969
- Matrix / Runout (Side A Run Out): YEX 749-2
- Matrix / Runout (Side B Run Out): YEX 750-1
Has fully laminated Garrod & Lofthouse outer sleeve with misaligned apple on rear. 'Her Majesty' is missing from the outer sleeve and from the record label. Larger image on sleeve with drain cover. Comes with original white inner sleeve (not all first press copies had the black inner).
Condition: Vinyl - Graded at VG ++ (conservatively). Visually, the vinyl is shiny and clean, and on inspection with a bright light there are a few hairline scratches/marks. I listened all the way through using headphones. There was a very low level hiss/crackle in the quiet parts and between tracks and I detected only one definite tick throughout in the middle of a song. Possible you wont hear anything if you are not listening with headphones. Other than this, the sound quality is excellent and it almost made me not put it up for sale, but hey, I need the money! Labels are excellent with only faint spindle marks around the central area. Inner Sleeve - Graded VG + Original white sleeve with no tears or major creases but does show signs of ageing in the form of discolouration (but nothing too noticeable). Outer sleeve - Graded VG ++ (conservatively) fully laminated Garrod & Lofthouse sleeve. Misaligned apple on rear. Edges all around are excellent (even at opening) one or two minor creases in the laminate and faint signs of rubbing around ring of record when tilted to bright light.
Prices can vary so much on this item so have included a buy it now option. I need to sell, so do make an offer if you so wish, and if its too low, I'll say.
