Sgt Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band The Beatles 1st Pressing in Mono PMC 7027 as released 26 May 1967,
This has the scarce Wide Spine variant sleeve, these are believed to be the earliest manufactured printings of the sleeve as the articles printed on the card were originally supposed to be actual plastic give away items included within the LP s gatefold sleeve , due to the production difficulties this would have caused EMI the compromise at that time was printing them as cut outs on the card hence they were initially thinking of more room being needed inside and gave it a wide thick spine which this has got,
This is a lovely 1st Pressing in Mono KT Purchase Tax Code to Side One, The Gramophone Co.... Sold in the UK Label Text,
Matrix Nos are XEX 637-1 and XEX 638-1 Mothers are 3 AO 4 RP,
Centre Holes in Great Shape very little seen in the way of spindle marks clearly its had careful handling,
