Description
PMC 7067/8. 1/1/1/1. 1968.
Miss press labels. No 'EMI' printed on any 4 labels!
No. 0065095. Nice low number.
Cover has some wear to very top of spine but is otherwise intact. Would grade vg+ considering it age.
Both vinyl strong vg, few marks on each side but doesn't affect play.
Original black inners have some tears & splits.
Lyric poster been sellotaped at some point (see pictures)
All 4 photos have pinholes & tape marks.
Nice original item, great condition, especially the cover considering its 50 years old!
Original Mono Pressing! Complete Set!
On offer here is an original mono 1st press copy of the Beatles LP The White Album. This is the complete set housed in its original, mono top-opening sleeve and includes the four photos, the poster and the two black inner sleeves.
This was the last original Beatles' album to have a full mono mix (Yellow Submarine was just a stereo fold-down into mono). Subsequantly most of the tracks have both subtle and blatant differences to their stereo counterparts! Beatle completists love the mono white album because of these differences, and as the mono pressing sold so poorly back in 1968 demand for them today is extremely high!
By 1968 mono was pretty much a dead format. Stereo records coming down in price to be the same as their mono counterparts along with the price of stereo record players drastically dropping meant that everybody bought stereo and the mono copies were left on the shelf. Mono sales dropped so much that by 1969 it was discontinued completely as a format across all labels. Because of this, stereo copies of this album far outsold the mono copies!
A really nice, clean example of this very rare and extremely collectible album!
