Description

OFFICIAL ORIGINAL AUTHORISED THE BEATLES LET IT BE BOX SET RELEASE APPLE RECORDS UK CATALOGUE PCS 7090 FIRST PRESSING AVAILABLE IN DELUXE PESENTATION SET RELEASED 8TH MAY 1970 - THE STANDARD ISSUE ISSUE WAS NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL 6TH NOVEMBER 1970. THIS DELUXE SET WAS EXPENSIVE AT THE TIME AND SALES WERE LOW IN COMPARISON TO THE STANDARD ISSUE.

THE DELUXE BOX WAS NOT A GREAT DESIGN WITH TRAYS DIFFICULT TO GET OUT, THE CARDBAORD SCUFFED THE BOOK AND LP COVER ETC AND SO HARDLY ANY HAVE REMAINED IN MINT CONDITION.

AUCTION IS FOR : THE LP WITH RED APPLE ON BACK OF LAMINATED SLEEVE,ORIGINAL WHITE INNER SLEEVE, BOOK, LAMINATED CARDBOARD OUTER BOX, OUTER TRAY.

AN EMI RECORDING MFD IN U.K. ON PAPER LABELS.

MATRIX : YEX 774-2U YEX 773-2U

STAMPER CODE SIDE 1 : TP, SIDE 2 : GG0

LP CONDITION : IN DAYLIGHT NEAR MINT CONDITION, UNDER STRONG ELECTRIC LIGHT MINIMUM EXCELLENT WITH A FEW MINOR HAIRLINES - HAS FULL ORIGINAL SHEEN. REALLY CLEAN THE BEST PRE OWNED FIRST PRESSING I HAVE SEEN OF THIS RECORD ONE CAREFUL OWNER.

PAPER LABELS : IN NR MINT CONDITION APART FROM A SMALL NUMBER OF SPINDLE MARKS, RICH COLOUR AND VERY WHITE, WITH BOLD BLACK TYPEFACE AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE.

LP SLEEVE CONDITION : MINIMUM EXCELLENT, CLEAR LEGIBLE SPINE WITH NO CRACKS, CORNERS STILL SHARP, NO SPLITS OR TEARS, SOME VERY MINOR RINGWEAR ON REVERSE, AND BIT OF SCUFFING OF LAMINATE FROM BEING IN BOX, VERY MINOR CREASE OVERALL AS GOOD AS I HAVE SEEN IN DECADES.

LET IT BE BOOK CONDITION : NEAR MINT CONDITION GUARANTEED, ALL INTACT MANY COPIES THE PAGES HAVE COME AWAY FROM THE BINDING, THIS IS SECURE AND THERE ARE NO CRACKS ON THE SPINE, SOME SLIGHT SCUFFING OF HIGHLY LAMINATED COVER FROM MOVEMENT IN BOX

OUTER LAMINATED CARDBOARD BOX MADE IN GRT BRITAIN BY G&L (PATENTS PENDING) : ALL INTACT WOULD SAY MINIMUM OF VERY GOOD PLUS AS CREASE ALONG TOP EDGE AND VERY MINOR WEAR AT CORNERS, AGAIN WAS HIGHLY LAMINATED AND WAS NEVER GOING TO REMAIN IN PRISTINE CONDITION AS ANY STORING WAS BOUND TO SCUFF LAMINATE ABIT - I HAVE THEREFORE RATED AS MINIMUM VERY GOOD PLUS IF IT WERE NOT FOR CREASE WOULD HAVE BEEN MINIMUM EXCELLENT.

OUTER CARDBOARD TRAY CONDITION : PROBABLY THE WORST BIT OF THE DESIGN THEY WERE TOO LARGE FOR THE BOX AND THE CARDBOARD WAS FLIMSY IN COMPARISON AND USUALLY FALL APART OR TEAR.THIS ONE IS INTACT WITH NO RIPS OR TEARS BUT DOES SHOW SOME WEAR ALONG THE SPINE EDGES AND SOME CREASING ON THE FOLD IN ROUNDED FLAP, BOTTOM AND TOP EDGES ARE EXCELLENT WILL GRADE AS MINIMUM VERY GOOD PLUS. THE ONLY THING MISSING IS THE INNER TRAY AND I SEE ON EBAY THAT YOU CAN BUY PERFECT REPLICA REPLACEMENTS IF YOU WANT TO UPGRADE.

OVERALL I BELIEVE ANY BEATLES COLLECTOR WILL BE VERY HAPPY TO ADD THIS TO THERE COLLECTION AS IT IS AN EXCELLENT CONDITION OVERALL FOR AN ITEM OVER 40 YEARS OLD, PLEASE BID WITH CONFIDENCE, IT WILL BE CAREFULLY PACKAGED WITH SLEEVE, INNER AND RECORD KEPT APART AND IN A BOXED TO PROTECT THE CONTENTS OVERALL.
