BEATLES: STEREO - VINYL BOX SET 2012 [180g Vinyl LP] - SEALED

Vinyl & covers are in NEW/MINT SEALED condition.  The outer box and slipcover are in NM condition.

All of the albums are NEW/SEALED, although I removed the plastic wrap from book to have a look at it.  The outer plastic wrap on "Beatles For Sale" has an opening on the back, appearing to have come that way from the factory.  

These records are heavy 180 gram pressing with the Parlophone & Apple labels (Magical Mystery Tour has a Capitol label).  They are a mixture of German, French, Canadian and US pressings (I've listed them all below).

The outer black box and slip cover are also in Near Mint condition.  I cannot find any flaws on either.  I have included them in the photos.

- Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band packaging includes replica psychedelic inner sleeve, cardboard cutout sheet and additional informational insert!
- Magical Mystery Tour packaging includes the original 24-page color book!
- The Beatles (double white album) packaging includes the poster/lyric sheet and 4 solo color photo glossies!

From a smoke free and pet free home.  This is very heavy and I will carefully box and protect for shipment.

General Info:

On 12 November 2012, the set was released on 180-gram vinyl, specially prepared for vinyl, with a 252-page book included. Also included are the inserts which were included in the original LPs such as the cardboard cutout sheet included in Sgt. Pepper plus the photos and poster included in The Beatles.  14 LP (16 discs).

180 Gram Vinyl Pressings Cut at Abbey Road Studios using the Non-Limited 24-bit Digital Masters Sourced from the Original Analog Master Tapes!

The re-mastering process commenced with an extensive period conducting tests before finally copying the analogue master tapes into the digital medium. When this was completed, the transfer was achieved using a Pro Tools workstation operating at 24 bit 192 kHz resolution via a Prism A-D converter. Transferring was a lengthy procedure done a track at a time. Although EMI tape does not suffer the oxide loss associated with some later analogue tapes, there was nevertheless a slight build up of dust, which was removed from the tape machine heads between each title.

Key information about vinyl and box set:

• Box Set contains all The Beatles’ 12 original UK albums plus the US-originated Magical Mystery Tour, and Past Masters, Volumes One & Two, featuring non-album A-sides and B-sides, EP tracks and rarities.
• All vinyl in STEREO except Love Me Do and P.S. I Love You from Please Please Me and Only A Northern Song from Yellow Submarine which are in mono. Love Me Do (original single version), She Loves You, I’ll Get You, and You Know My Name (Look Up The Number) from Past Masters are also presented in mono.
• Magical Mystery Tour comes with the 24-page booklet, as per original release.
• George Martin’s 1986 stereo remixes used for Help! and Rubber Soul
• Vinyl cut using traditional lacquer cutting techniques
• Original 24-bit remasters used for production (rather than the 16-bit versions that were required for CD production). No ‘limiting’ on the masters.
• Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band runout groove plays correctly (the first time for American pressings)
• a stunning, elegantly designed 252-page hardbound book
