💿 DESCRIPTION An exceptional example of The Beatles' masterpiece Abbey Road. This is the Original US First Pressing from 1969. It features the iconic "crosswalk" cover, which has been incredibly well-preserved in its original factory shrink wrap (opened, but still covering the jacket). Most importantly for collectors, this copy features the "Misprint/Omission" errors found only on the earliest pressings: the song "Her Majesty" is NOT listed on the back cover tracklist, and it is NOT listed on the Side 2 record label. Later pressings corrected this to include the track title. 💎 CONDITION VINYL: excellent (Ex) COVER: very good plus (vg+)
tears on shrink and wear on cover 🧾 NOTES FOR COLLECTORS

• First Pressing Indicators:

  1. Back Cover: The tracklist ends with "The End." It does not list "Her Majesty."

  2. Label (Side 2): The tracklist ends with "The End." It does not list "Her Majesty."

• Shrink Wrap: The presence of the original shrink wrap adds significant value, as these white covers are notorious for ring wear and staining over time.

• Matrix: The runout grooves show early matrix numbers ending in F1, indicating this was pressed from an early lacquer cut.
