THE BEATLES - HEY JUDE
Mega Rare UK Apple EXPORT Press Featuring PAPER BACK and RESOLUTIONS Errors!!

On offer here is an extremely rare and hard to find UK Apple export copy of the Beatles LP 'Hey Jude'.

Hey Jude was original issued in America only but it appears that EMI UK pressed a small number on the UK Apple label specifically for export.

However, a tiny number of this already small run of copies featured two label errors - a space in the word PAPERBACK so that it incorrectly read as PAPER BACK and, more obviously, REVOLUTION was mis-spelled as REVOLUTIONS

Absolutely stellar example of this incredibly rare and highly collectible record. Check out the descriptions and photos!

Cover Condition: EX-
The sleeve has a womderfully clean, clear laminate to it with just a little disc impression and one noticeable crease in the laminate on the front cover next to the mouth. Top seam has a small split in the middle, but spine and bottom seams are holding perfectly. Some small, light creases around the edges on the back but nothing major. Overall, holding up wonderfully!

Record Condition: EX+/NM-
The disc has a beautifully crisp, clean shine to it and looks like it's barely been played. Would have been a true NM grading if it wasn't for one very faint surface scuff that runs through the inner 3 tracks on side 1 at the 9 o'clock position.
.
Label Condition: NM
Stellar labels with zero damage or issues, and with just a very slight, faint amount of spindlewear around the centrehole.

My Vinyl Grading:

MINT - No true preowned disc can be mint. The highest I will ever grade a disc is NM+/M- if it looks untouched and unplayed, but the MINT description will only be for records I personally know have never been played (i.e. I personally bought from new) or for copies that are still sealed.

NEAR MINT (NM) - For discs that look near flawless and which may have just the slightest, barely visible little whispy marks here and there.

EXCELLENT (EX) - For discs that still retain a brilliant, clean shine but does have some light scuffs here and there

VERY GOOD (VG) - For discs that still look clean and have a nice shine to them, but do have a fair amount of light scuffmarks and/or some light scratches.

GOOD (G) - For discs that look like they have been loved and have a fair amount of scuffs and surface scratches. Not in terrible condition, but would look like it would play with a lot of crackle.

FAIR (F) - For discs that may have some life left in them but are pretty trashed with numerous surface scuffs and heavier scuffs and scratches etc

POOR (P) - For discs that are unplayable and look completely trashed. Discs like this would only ever be offered if they were insanely rare.
