APPLE SAPCOR 1
1A-1 1B-2 (SCRATCHED OUT STAP 1)
STAMPERS M1 R1
THE DARK GREEN APPLE LABELS TO BOTH SIDES SIDES ARE IN STUNNING AND UNSPOILT CONDITION. CLOSE INSPECTION UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT REVEALS JUST TWO VERY VERY LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS TO SIDE TWO ONLY BUT ABSOLUTELY NO SPINDLE WEAR. THE LABELS ARE CLEAN AND BRIGHT WITH PREFECT LETTERING AND ARE CLEAN WITH NO WRITING OR OTHER UNWANTED MARKS.
THE GLOSSY VINYL IS ALSO TRULY STUNNING, POSSIBLY ONLY EVER PLAYED TWICE, AGAIN WHEN CLOSELY INSPECTED UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL DISPLAYS JUST VERY VERY LIGHT, WISPY BUT EXTREMLEY MINIMAL HANDLING SURFACE MARKS. THE VINYL LIES PERFECTLY FLAT WITH NO WARPING AND THERE IS ABSOLUTLEY NO DULLING TO THE PLAYING SURFACE.
AUDIO IS FLAWLESS, THE ALBUM PLAYS CLEAR AND SHARP THROUGHOUT WITHOUT INTERRUPTION. EVEN TRACK GROOVES AND BOTH RUN IN/OFF GROOVES ARE SILENT.
THE CORRECT BLACK DIE CUT INNER IS PRESENT AND IS IN SUPERB CONDITION. THE INNER IS STILL QUITE CRISP WITH A FEW LIGHT AND MINOR CREASES AND A SMALL "NICK" TO DIE CUT EDGE (SEE PICTURE). THE INNER IS TOTALLY INTACT WITH NO EDGE SPLITS E.T.C. AND IS FREE FROM WRITING.
THE INSERT IS NOT INCLUDED.
THE OUTER FULLY LAMINATED SLEEVE IS A SUPERB EXAMPLE. THE FRONT DISPLAYS A FEW TINY EDGE WRINKLES TO THE SPINE EDGE BUT ABSOLUTELY NO CREASES. THE FRONT RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL DEEP GLOSS AND ALL THE COLOURS AND LETTERING ARE STILL BRIGHT AND VIBRANT. THE SLEEVE DOES NOT SUFFER THE USUAL CORNER BUMPS. THERE IS NO EDGE WEAR AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP AND TRUE. THE REAR HAS NO EDGE WRINKLES AND NO CREASES THE REAR CARRIES THE CORRECT "STEREO" ONLY TEXT. THE SPINE IS STILL PERFECT AND RIGID WITH NO WEAR VISIBLE. THE SLEEVE IS TOTALLY INTACT WITH NO REPAIRS AND IS OF COURSE FREE FROM ANY WRITING....A FABULOUS EXAMPLE
OVERALL A TRULY STUNNING EXAMPLE OF THIS FIRST UK APPLE STEREO PRESSING WHICH OFFERS NEAR MINT LABELS, NEAR MINT VINYL, MINT AUDIO AND EARLY STAMPERS AND IS HOUSED IN A VERY ATTRACTIVE 1ST ISSUE STEREO SLEEVE.
THIS IS THE FIRST EVER SOLO BEATLE ALBUM, THE FIRST EVER ALBUM RELEASE ON THE APPLE LABEL AND THEREFORE THE FIRST TO CARRY APPLE NUMBERING AND THE FIRST ""BEATLES" ALBUM NOT TO ENTER THE UK CHARTS.
