Item Description

THE BEATLES - THE BEATLES WHITE ALBUM This genuinely low-numbered UK cover contains 1st STEREO pressing discs on the dark green Apple Records label: PCS 7067/8 You would normally expect to find mono discs inside a cover this early, but I am told these discs were inside when it was purchased new All four labels carry the Sold in UK....
text the An EMI Recording wording Disc 1 matrices: YEX 709-2 YEX 710-1 Stamper codes: 2/GRH 2/GAD Vinyl weight: 146g A KT purchase tax code is present in the centre of the side 4 label Matrices: YEX 711-1 YEX 712-1 Stamper codes: 4/GAO 4/GGO Vinyl weight: 149g Housed within a fully laminated, top-opening Garrod Lofthouse printed gatefold cover Numbered on the front panel: No.
0000113 This copy comes with its original 4 colour portrait photos poster Complete with both die-cut, matt black inner-sleeves.
CONDITION Labels: EXCELLENT All labels are in fine condition with just a hint of foxing on label 2 but no noticeable spindle trails around either.
Some light spindle marks are visible around disc 2 s centre hole but both are otherwise clean unblemished.
Both Discs: EXCELLENT Immaculate, deep-gloss playing surfaces on both discs with no noticeable marks or wear visible to any in strong daylight.
Closer examination directly beneath my powerful halogen desk lamp reveals nothing more than some harmless inner-sleeve storage/removal hairlines, but no further significant blemishes or wear.
Sound Quality: Disc 1: NEAR MINT Disc 2: EXCELLENT Disc 1 has clearly received very little play and sound is flawless throughout.
Disc 2 is also free from any groove/playwear, with the only distractions being two ticks at the end of Mother Nature s Son a hint of vinyl background in some of the quieter passages.
Cover: VERY GOOD This low-numbered example is strong fully intact throughout.
It does have moderate age-toning to all aspects together with slight rippling along the upper edge along.
There are also some age-related blemishes towards the lower two small thumbnail wrinkles towards the upper edge.
However, the laminate over the raised wording is fully intact and the all-important low number is clearly visible.
There are small bumps to the upper right and lower left corners but upper opening edges are free from any tears or feathering.
Both panel inside the gatefold are clean, glossy and unmarked with just a single small thumbnail wrinkle on each.
The rear panel is as clean glossy as the front with a light disc impression but no thumbnails or any other significant traces of wear.
The spine s laminate has split but both sets of text are readable and all seams of both pockets are smooth unstressed and unworn.
Photos: MINT Poster: EXCELLENT Clean unhung with light handling wear but no wear or tears to any fold or edge.
Inner-sleeves: EXCELLENT Both are clean flat with just a tiny nick to the upper edge of each but there are no tears to the central windows or splits to any seam.
