Description
Original UK stereo press of the Beatles White Album, No. 595,038.
It has the poster, four stills (plus rare spacer paper to separate them), black inners and the rare label error on side 2, spelling 'Rocky Raccoon' as 'Rocky Racoon.'
Overall condition is good, but not perfect.
I'll try to be as honest as possible with the description so you know what you're buying ...
The cover is fairly good. The number is nice and clear. It does have some age-related wear and marks (see pictures). Plus someone's name appears to have been written on the top right at some point (ink now faded). It also has quite a thick, wide spine, which I believe is a rarer variant.
The four stills are in very good condition. The poster is also good, although does have a very small split (about an inch) at one of the centre folds. But it's definitely a good solid poster.
The labels are very good - not much spindle wear at all. The vinyl visually also looks good, save for the expected small scuffs here and there - plus a light hairline mark on side 1 and 4. I haven't played this for years and don't now have the ability to do so. From memory, I do think it skipped a few times here and there, but still ran through pretty well overall.
The black inners are good, expect for the expected small tears and wear and tear. One of them also does have a split of about three inches down the side.
Matrix and stampers are:
YEX 709-1 3/LH YEX 710 -1 2/LH YEX 711 -1 3/GHM YEX 712 -2 1/GOP
Overall this is decent - but not perfect - copy of a great album. But it does have all the original parts plus those cool extras in the form of the spacer and the rare label error.

Please note that the postage quoted is for the UK only. I will send elsewhere but obviously the price would change.
Thanks for looking.
