Not only does this have the rare XEX 606-1 matrix number, it also has really early stampers (the 5th and 6th).

Sleeve printed and made by Ernest J. Day & Co. Ltd, London
Detailed description
Vinyl: Visually, there are numerous hairlines and marks visible on either side as well as a few scuffs and light scratches. There is also a 'pockmark' in And Your Bird Can Sing (see last photo). I have played the entire record and it plays through fine apart from this mark which caused the needle to stick. There is surface noise and crackle audible in the quiet bits and the run-ins/outs and fades/silent grooves/intros and there are various places where you get a soft repetitive click but these are never intrusive and never last very long (apart from one in Here, There and Everywhere which lasted for just over a minute). On the first play through the needle stuck near the beginning of Good Day Sunshine, but there was no sign of this on the second play through (Please see the information below on play-graded vinyl for details). There was no significant noise during Tomorrow Never Knows, just a bit of crackle in the silent grooves before the track and in the fade and run-out.
Labels: Both labels look fine with no damage, writing, stickers etc, just spindle wear/marking which is most noticeable on the side two label (see photo).
Sleeve: The Ernest J. Day sleeve has no damage, writing, splits, tears or stickers etc and just light signs of use. There are a few soft laminate creases to the front and a few creases/cracks in the laminate along the spine. The spine text is fully legible and there is minimal wear to the bottom edge and none to the top. The opening has slight feathering at the rear where the record has been put in and taken out. The flipbacks are all intact and complete and the unlaminated rear has just very slight ring wear. There is moderate wear to the corners.
Inner sleeve: The original plain 'Patents applied for' inner sleeve has a split in the bottom seam, so I shall also include a brand new inner sleeve.
Other inserts: n/a
Detracting features not covered above - none.
Please check out my other items and take advantage of reduced postage costs for multiple buys.

Information about descriptions.
I have 100% positive feedback because my records are always described accurately and fairly. I always do my best to point out any blemishes which might detract from the item. All photographs are of the actual item you will get.
Play-graded vinyl: I will always state in the listing if I have played a record prior to describing it. When I play a record I listen to it carefully through headphones, taking notes of any noise, clicks, distortion etc and play it all the way through (unless stated otherwise). I have two record decks and one is more sensitive than the other to any physical flaws on the record surface. Records are always played on the sensitive deck first and the notes for the audio performance are taken from that deck. If this play-through detects any jumps or sticks those sections of the disk will be re-played on the less-sensitive deck to see whether they happen on that too.
First pressings and originals: Many of the records I sell are first pressings and, if this is the case, I will usually identify them as such and may include the relevant matrix information etc in the description. However, sometimes I cannot be certain whether a record is a first pressing or not. In these instances I will often use the word 'original' to identify a pressing which I think might be a first pressing, but do not know for sure (but which is certainly NOT a recent pressing or audiophile release etc). If you specifically want a first pressing, and know how to identify it, please ask the relevant questions before you bid.
Feel free to ask any questions about the item (but please don’t leave it to the last minute as I may not get a chance to reply).
******************************************
I believe that Ebay should be fun, simple and fair for all buyers and sellers and so have some very simple terms and conditions. Please read them before bidding. Thank you.

******************************************
POSTAGE & PACKING
I care about the records I sell and believe that they need to be carefully and securely packaged to ensure that they survive their journey through the post. Vinyl is removed from the sleeve for posting and the contents will be protected with rigid cardboard stiffeners. All packages are labelled "Do not bend" and securely sealed with "FRAGILE" parcel tape.
I support the use of recycled materials and so some or all of the packaging you receive your records in may have been previously used or be made from old cardboard boxes. If you wish your item to be sent in entirely new packaging please let me know before paying for it. Thanks.
