Description
Please be aware that all records are VISUALLY graded only - all grades are given based on how they appear under my desk lamp - since I do not own a record player. I cannot guarantee that discs will be click and skip free, although any marks and scratches that might possibly cause such problems will be highlighted clearly in the description.
All photos are of the actual item on sale. I do not use stock or 'borrowed' images.
THE BEATLES
The White Album
This listing is for an original, early 1st pressing of the Beatles double LP 'The Beatles', more commonly known at the White Album.
This is the very early, original press that omits the' An EMI Recording' text on all four labels. As most of the early copies that were manufactured were in mono it's not too difficult to find the mono copies that omit this text, but it's extremely difficult to find it on the stereo release!
Comes with its original black inner sleeves, but has no poster or photos.
Please check out detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.
