Hello and welcome to this auction for a 'Beatles - Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' 1967 first press MONO vinyl LP!
This particular pressing is the very first MONO pressing of Sgt Pepper, released in 1967, with the Sans Serif font. Incredibly iconic and highly collectible, the mono version of this record is believed to be the best - The Beatles themselves said it's how it should be heard! And they weren't wrong! One of my all time favourite records and mixes, you won't be disappointed! Also features the original red and white psychedelic 'Fool inner' sleeve. No cutout unfortunately but these can be picked up elsewhere, usually on eBay. DO NOT MISS OUT!!!

Condition:
Vinyl (visual): Side 1 - it does have a few light marks and hairline scratches but nothing that I can feel however. Has a nice gloss and is rated as VERY GOOD. Label is VERY GOOD+.                       Side 2 - same as Side 1 with a couple of lightly feelable marks that are small and not deep.
Audio: I have played the entire record from start to finish! From this, I can grade the audio as VERY GOOD. There is some background crackle but the punchy mono audio punches right through this and the vocals and instruments can be clearly heard! I still recommend a deep clean as some of the quieter passages do get a bit crackly. A great classic 60s mono mix with lots of punchy bass and crisp highs. An absolute joy to listen to! There are NO SKIPS, NO JUMPS and NO STICKS on my system! 
Inner Sleeve: The original Fool inner sleeve is currently in VERY GOOD condition! It has a 1" split to the left side. Elsewhere, there is some discolouration and light creases but nothing sinister! Free form writing and graffiti! *I AM INCLUDING A BRAND NEW, WHITE, POLY-LINED INNER SLEEVE TO PRESERVE THE ORIGINAL*

Sleeve: The original 1967 MONO gatefold sleeve is currently rated as a strong VERY GOOD! The front of the sleeve has a lovely gloss and shine but it does have some light ringwear and light laminate creasing. The inner gatefold has some writing on the top flipback but very very feint - please see pictures!! The rear of the sleeve has some light ringwear and creasing with light wear towards the edges but no splits or tears anywhere! The spine has been rubbed and is lightly discoloured and worn but still very readable with no splits! 

DO NOT MISS OUT!!!


PLEASE SEE ALL PICTURES!!!


As with all the vintage records I sell, I advise a deep clean to enhance the sound quality of the record. Overall, a very iconic and collectible MONO Beatles record that everyone should own!
