The Beatles The White Album Stereo 1st PRESSING Top loader Complete with spacer serial no 0386268. 
Description found with the record, we guess, from when our family member who collected these originally bought this record: ORIGINAL UK 1968 2xLP COMPLETE WITH TWO BLACK INNER SLEEVES, 4 X PICTURES WITH THE SUPER RARE SPACER PLUS THE POSTER. TRYING TO FIND A 'WHITE' ALBUM IN THIS COMPLETE FORM IS A HARD TASK. USUALLY ALL FOUR PICTURES WHERE PINNED TO A WALL OR CELLO-TAPED TO A DOOR, THE POSTER NAILED TO THE WALL WITH THE THIN BLACK PAPER INNER SLEEVES USUALLY RIPPED OR LOST/MIS-PLACED. FINDING A COMPLETE SET LIKE THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT RARER COMPARED TO ITS COUNTERPARTS. number: 0386268. Grading Vinyl - VG/VG+ Both vinyls play through great with no major issues. Disc One: VG+ A few light hairlines but nothing deep, nasty or that would cause any major effect to play. Some light background noise, more-so between tracks and very quieter parts, which are few and far between. Audio is loud and clear, well pressed vinyl. Disc Two: VG Very similar to the first vinyl with a few more light/wispy hairlines. Nothing deep or nasty. Audio is also loud and clear with some background noise. Sleeve – VG. Fully laminated gatefold sleeve. No rips or seam splits at all. Some storgae/edge ware and some age toning to front and back panels. Solid gatefold and spine. Labels – EX Both labels look clean and bright with a few spindle lines each side. Poster/Pictures. All four pictures are present with minimal ware. The rare and illusive spacer is also present, 99% of the time this spacer is thrown away or lost instantly making it very rare. The poster is also in very good condition with no rips or splits.
