Notes: Issued with 4 glossy photographs, a double-sided poster, black inner sleeves.?Embossed lettering (The Beatles) on the cover in a Top-opening gatefold sleeve. This Version characteristics:?- 'Sold in the UK. subject to resale price conditions, see price list' on the label. ?- The copies are numbered on the front individually to each copy and imprinted 'No 0000000'.?- (Stereo) imprinted on rear jacket sleeve.?- With added “An E.M.I. Recording” text to the left of ALL labels, above the “33 1/3? text. ?- No embossed tax code on labels.

Both vinyls retain their original sheen and except for one issue play superbly all the way through - (at least VG+ to EX). On Side 4, Track 1 there is a "stick/repeat". Record 1 and the rest of Record 2 are great so a difficult one to grade but I've gone down the middle with VG. The labels are crisp and clean with very little sign of spindle wear. The top-loading sleeve has a little corner wear and a shade of ring wear, otherwise very clean and tidy. It comes with the poster (which has been re-enforced with tape it would appear as a preventative measure rather than a repair ) and sadly only one photo (George). My Ref No 3 Matrix:

YEX 709-2/YEX 710-1/YEX 711-1/YEX 712-1

 

All albums have been play tested on my Pro-ject Debut III with standard Ortofon cartridge. I don't often sell albums that are graded below VG - usually only when they are quite rare examples. With albums of G+ or less grading which are typically very well played and scratched, I have found it impossible to assess whether a scratch results in a click or a jump as it depends what set up you have. I will still make every effort to point out where feelable scratches are present. 

I will happily combine postage costs - if buying more than one album please wait for an invoice before paying. Please see my other listings.
