THIS IS AN EXCEPTIONAL COPY OF THE SECOND PRESS STEREO VERSION OF THE 1968 WHITE ALBUM BY THE BEATLES. IT IS COMPLETE WITH THE ORIGINAL FOUR GLOSSY PHOTOS, THE LYRIC/PICTURE POSTER AND ORIGINAL APPLE INNER SLEEVES.
VINYL: ALL FOUR SIDES ARE IN IMMACULATE CONDITION WITH NO MARKS OR BLEMISHES. UNDER STRONG LIGHT THERE ARE SOME VERY FAINT PAPER MARKS FROM SLEEVE REMOVAL, BUT ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WHICH AFFECTS THE AUDIO. ALL SIDES PLAY WITHOUT SKIPS, STICKS OR LOUD POPS AND NO BACKGROUND NOISE ON THE RUN-INS OR BETWEEN TRACKS.
THE VINYL HAS CLEARLY BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER FOR FIFTY YEARS AND NOT PLAYED VERY MUCH AT ALL.
LABELS: ALL CLEAN AND BRIGHT WITH NO MARKS. VERY FEW SPINDLE TRACES INDICATING VERY FEW PLAYS OF THIS ALBUM. LABELS STATE "MFD IN UK" AND "EMI RECORDING".
SLEEVE: THE SIDE-OPENING GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS CLEAN AND BRIGHT WITH NO LAMINATE LIFTING ANYWHERE. THE SEAMS ARE ALL INTACT WITH VIRTUALLY NO EDGE WEAR (SEE PHOTOS). THE INNER GATEFOLD IS UNSPOILED WITH NO MARKS OR WRITING. THE LAMINATE IS UNSPOILED EVEN ON THE SPINE, WHERE LAMINATE CRACKING IS A COMMON FAULT WITH THIS ALBUM. THE ONLY FAULT IS A CORNER CREASE ON THE BACK COVER WHICH IS NOT SERIOUS.
THE FOUR GLOSSY COLOUR PORTRAITS ARE UNDAMAGED AND CLEAN. THE PICTURE OF GEORGE HARRISON HAS A SMALL CREASE TO THE TOP CORNER ON THE WHITE BORDER, BUT IT IS VERY MINOR.
THE LYRIC PICTURE POSTER IS INTACT, BUT HAS THE BEGINNINGS OF SOME SEAM SPLITS WHERE IT HAS BEEN FOLDED. THE LYRIC SIDE HAS SOME MINOR AGE SPOTS.
THE INNER SLEEVES ARE THE ORIGINAL WHITE PAPER BAGS WITH THE APPLE COPYRIGHT WARNING ON BOTH SIDES, PATENT NUMBERS AND "MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN". THEY ARE BOTH INTACT WITH NO TEARS OR SEAM SPLITS, BUT A FEW LIGHT AGE MARKS.
AS BEATLES FANS WILL KNOW, THE STEREO MIX IS CONSIDERABLY DIFFERENT TO THE MONO VERSION, AND MANY TRUE COLLECTORS LIKE TO OWN BOTH. THIS IS A PERFECT BACK-UP COPY FOR SOMEONE WHO ALREADY OWNS A MONO FIRST PRESSING, OR FOR SOMEONE WHO IS JUST DISCOVERING THE BEATLES ON VINYL.
