THE BEATLES
WHITE ALBUM
1968 1st Mono Pressing
1st Matrices -1/ -1/ -1/ -1
Sleeve:
The sleeve is sturdy and strong and the centre partition is intact keeping the two records held securely. It is clean an glossy and is an original top opening numbered sleeve. It has clearly seen better days, as it was torn on the rear panel and has deep creases. It has been restored with super glue and masking tape on the interior along the split - there won’t be any problems with it. It actually states ‘Stereo’ in the top right corner of the rear panel although the discs are in Mono format.
Inner Sleeves: Good reproductions fully intact.
Vinyl’s: In Very Good Minus condition. Has some light hairlines over much of their surfaces revealed which are superficial to the surfaces i.e. nothing obtrusive, and certainly nothing that can be considered a scratch, nothing at all feel-able. There is no groove wear, warps, scuffs, needle drops or actual scratches. Have received many plays but have been treated well.
The Labels: Very Good. Some play-use evident in terms of a light spindle line traces.
The ‘E.M.I. Recording’ text is omitted on each record label making this a very early 1st pressing.
No tax code which is quite unusual.
Early Mothers/ Stampers:
Side 1 - 1 GR
Side 2 - 2 P
Side 3 - 2 HG
Side 4 - 2 HG
The Audio: Plays with warm mono bass and lucid detail. Has light background crackle evident throughout but nothing over-powering. No pops, skips, jumps or sticks. Not perfect audio but very decent, still a good listen and a nice collection filler.
