This is a 1st pressing, with the dark green labels, no "Her Majesty", small copyright 'P', missaligned Apple on rear cover and the drain visible on front. The cover is also the version that has a very slight green tint and has the plain white inner sleeve.
The matrix has the crucial YEX 749-2 and YEX 750-1 impressions. Overall it's a very nice package given it's 48 years of age.
Outer sleeve is excellent with very little scuffing to corners, a few light creases in the laminate and a little wear along opening edge, but graphics are crisp and bright.
Inner sleeve is very good with no edge splits, but does have a 2cm tear at the opening edge on one side and a couple of marks. It has also has 'Abbey Road' written in ink on one side.
The Vinyl on both sides is very good. It does have numerous very light scratches, but still has a nice lustre. It plays very well with some crackles and general noise in places but overall the sound is fantastic and the noise not obtrusive.
Labels are excellent.
