The Beatles – The White Album. Vinyl gatefold sleeve.  Vinyl L.P UK 1968

We need the space now so am selling all my old vinyls.  This is an original purchase made by us when new, 1972/ 3.  Stereo pressing with fully laminated, un-numbered, side opening, embossed logo gatefold sleeve.  All original posters and prints.

Apple label.  Catalogue numbers; PCS 7067 and 7068.  The matrixes are:

YEX 709-1
YEX 710-3
YEX 711-1
YEX 712-1

Condition, using “Record Collector” magazine grading guide

Record

VERY GOOD, at least.  The vinyl has some visible surface markings under bright light.  Visually it is graded as VERY GOOD, at least.

Labels

VERY GOOD.  Some light spindle marks on both sides.

Sleeves inner

EXCELLENT.  Original white paper inners.  No tears or splits.  Some light creasing, that looks worse on the photos.

Sleeve outer

VERY GOOD.  I struggled with this so have erred on the side of caution.  There is some spine-wear and the photos show this, but the album is over 40 years old.

Audio.

VERY GOOD.  The VINYL has been play-tested (my husband has converted it to digital format with Audacity) and rates it VERY GOOD.  Despite the vinyl having some visible surface markings (above) it plays fine; no sticks, skips or jumps.

Inserts – Prints

EXCELLENT.  Four prints; no creases tears or stains; effectively MINT

Inserts – Poster.

EXCELLENT.  The lightest of creases.  No pin holes, sticky-tape, tears or writing.
