The Beatles
Magical Mystery Tour EP Mono 1st pressing with blue lyric sheet
Catalogue Number MMT-1
Year 1967
Matrix numbers Side 1 7XCE 1835-1; Side 2 7XCE 1834-1; Side 3 7XCE 1835-1; Side 4 7XCE 1835-1-2
The EP comes complete with Garrod and Lofthouse flipback sleeve, inner booklet and blue lyric sheet. The 2 records are housed within the original wavy line paper sleeves
Overall condition is VG+ only due to the -very neat- handwriting on the inner sleeves containing owner's name and magical mystery tour which to me adds charm!.
Labels are clean but do have some spindle marks
Vinyl plays beautifully with a rich full and has nothing more than a few hairlines and paper cuff, still has shine , probably never been cleaned other than an emtex cloth
Outer sleeve and booklet in Ex condition with only lightest of shelf wear at corner edges and a little laminate lift at spine edge. However please note the following about the staples : - there are only two staples AND only ever have been two staples there are no 'piercings' where a third may have been placed -the booklet is attached to the cover by a single staple - lower one - again this has always been the case and it was clearly manufactured this way , there are no piercings through the outer cover where any other staple may have been positioned
Inner sleeves original wavy line sleeves , 1 has minor yellowing the other is perfectly white, v light creases but minor, there is some writing - owner's name and magical mystery tour in small neat handwriting
Whether this is the result of an oversight at the manufacturing stage or not i have no idea but it is a fact!
A very nice copy .
All items graded using the ebay guide as below but please do view the pictures for details and if you wish for any others I will try to respond to request.
"MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint; EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing; 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. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable; GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc; FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced; POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing; BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
All records will be packed and posted carefully and securely in reinforced cardboard mailers. Please note I only send internationally as "International tracked/signed for" for which i charge a flat rate . If any item is not as you feel it was described please contact me and I will endeavour to sort out any problems amicably and without hassle. I have added some postal exclusions! I will happily combine postage for multiple items.
