Description
This is a rare early copy of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band by The Beatles — an iconic album in exceptional condition, highly sought after by collectors. This original 1967 1St UK pressing is a true gem for any serious Beatles collection.
Condition:
-
Vinyl: EX – very close to NM, with superb gloss and clarity. Plays beautifully with rich detail and dynamics. There is a slight surface noise at the very beginning of each side; otherwise, it is near mint.
-
Cover: EX – clean and well-preserved, with a rarely well-preserved spine, which is exceptional for this album.
-
Inner Sleeve: Original psychedelic inner sleeve and green cut-out insert included.
Matrix Numbers: YEX 637-1 H / YEX 638-1 GR2 — these are very early stereo pressings of the original 1967 UK release.
-
YEX 637-1 and YEX 638-1 denote the first matrix cuts for sides A and B.
-
The “1” indicates the very first version of the pressing.
-
The letters “H” and “GR2” are stamper codes used during manufacturing.
These details confirm this copy as a rare and valuable first stereo pressing.
This record has never been in a smoking environment.
A wonderful addition to any collection or a perfect gift for Beatles fans and collectors.
The album is already in the USA, so there are no additional customs fees.
