NOTES
This release has a misaligned Apple Records logo on the back and does not list "Her Majesty" on either cover or B side label. The front cover photo is more tightly cropped than on other releases, showing less sky (noticeable over the roof tops right) and less of the drainage grating bottom right. The sleeve has arrow spines.
Small Ⓟ on labels.
Copies exist with both black and white generic inners, the order of release (if any) has been debated since original release date.
There a variant of this with all same features apart from having "Her Majesty" printed on the B side label.
CONDITION
RECORD IS EXCELLENT TO NEAR MINT, LOVELY WITH A DEEP GLOSSY LIKE NEW RAINBOW SHEEN TO THE VINYL SURFACES WHICH ARE CLEAN AND BRIGHT. OBVIOUSLY PLAYED BUT SPARINGLY IN THE LAST 54 YEARS, LOVELY !!!
I CAN ONLY SEE A COUPLE OF FEINT SLEEVE REMOVAL / HAIRLINES IN TOTAL ACROSS SIDE 2 ONLY, BUT ONLY WHEN VINYL IS TILTED, UNDER A STRONG LIGHT NO EFFECT AT ALL ON AUDIO PLAYBACK, (SEE PICS)
CENTRE LABELS ARE IN SUPER CONDITION (SEE PICS) WITH JUST A FEW FEINT SPINDLE MARKS CONFINED TO THE DISC CENTRE EACH SIDE
THEREFORE OBVIOUSLY , A GREAT AUDIO EXPERIENCE WHEN PLAYTESTED ON MY REGA TURNTABLE, TINY STATIC AT RUN INS LOVELY PLAYBACK !!!
THE OUTER SLEEVE IS EXCELLENT ON THIS RARE MISPRINT COPY WITH THE APPLE LOGO ON REVERSE MISALIGNED WITH ABOVE TEXT IN ERROR !! SUBSEQUENTLY MOVED ON LATER PRESSINGS
AFEW LAMINATE CREASES AND SOME CORNER WEAR ONLY, NO SPLITS, TEARS OR WRITING ETC STILL GLOSSY AND THE CORRECT PINCHED SPINE IS FULLY LEGIBLE STILL. AMAZING
THE CORRECT FIRST PRESS BLACK TEXTURED PAPER WITH WITH ONE CENTRE HOLE INNER SLEEVE IS NEAR MINT DUE TO ONLY LEAVING THE OUTER SLEEVE ON A FEW OCCASSIONS !!
A REALLY LOVELY CLEAN EXAMPLE !! SEE ALL PICS
