Side-opening, laminated gatefold sleeve embossed with 'The BEATLES' logo.
No inserts or number on the front.
Has unusual round plastic inners. I’ve put the Records in new paper sleeves but will send the originals.
COVER GRADES AS EXCELLENT:
THE COVER HAS SOME MINOR WEAR BUT RETAINS A LOVELY SHEEN AND STRAIGHT EDGES.
The spine is very clean, straight and legible.
LABELS AND RECORDS GRADE AS EXCELLENT PLUS:
Really great sound and just some light static crackle. I think both records would benefit from a good clean.
There are sleeve removal scratches to the surface, but they don’t sound.
The labels are closer to NEAR MINT, and my father insists the records were never played.

THIS IS FROM MY FATHER’S PRIVATE COLLECTION.
MOST WERE PLAYED ONCE, RECORDED ONTO TAPE CASSETTE AND THEN STORED.
ALL WERE STORED IN PVC SLEEVES ON SHELVES AWAY FROM DIRECT LIGHT.
P&P
I will ship anywhere on the planet, provided I can send it TRACKED AND SIGNED.
I only charge you what it costs me at the Post Office.
I will combine shipping, of course.
Message me for the price.
GRADING
I ALWAYS PLAY TEST THE RECORD TO MAKE SURE IT SOUNDS AS GOOD AS IT LOOKS.
I don’t clean the Records prior to selling, as everyone has their preferred method.
I use the Record Collector's grading system giving separate condition ratings for the Vinyl and Sleeve - see below:
Near Mint (NM) - A nearly perfect record. Has more than likely been played few times or not at all, and the vinyl will show no imperfections during playback. Sleeve will have no more than the most minor defects. The same is true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.
Excellent Plus (EX+) - Very close to NM but has either a little dust or plenty of sleeve removal surface scratches that DO NOT AFFECT SOUND. May have light static crackle that can easily be fixed.
Excellent (EX) -The record shows some signs of having been played but there is very little lessening in sound quality. Sleeve may have slight wear or creasing
Very Good (VG) - The record has obviously been played many times but displays no major deterioration in sound quality despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Sleeve, normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable
