      ORIGINAL 1967 CAPITOL STEREO PRESSING...
      STILL SEALED !!

      "MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR"
      by
      THE BEATLES

      (Capitol #SMAL 2835 • 1967)

      SEALED MINT CONDITION !!

      Sealed albums from the 60's by
      "THE FAB FOUR"
      are
      "HOLY GRAIL" FINDS !!

      This factory-sealed album was found
      at an estate sale with a group of
      other sealed LPs (some titles in quantities)
      so possibly the original owner was in
      the record or radio business back in the 60's.

      All of the albums found were from
      1965 through 1969
      and many had the original price stickers
      on them - like this one for "$4.99" !!

      The list price of $5.98 is consistent
      with that time period as well,
      since the label used the prefixes
      to alert retailers to price accordingly.

      After
      THE BEATLES
      and
      CAPITOL RECORDS
      renegotiated their agreement in 1969,
      all of their albums sported a
      "SO" or "SW" prefix, indicating a higher list.

      The word "STEREO" is at the top
      of the title spine followed by
      the album title and artist name.

      At the spine's bottom, there's the
      CAPITOL "DOME" LOGO
      followed by the release number
      (with no prefix). I attempted to scan the spine
      but, because of shrink wrap glare,
      was unsuccessful.

      That would seem to suggest
      that this is one of the first pressings issued.

      The record labels
      used to print one cover slick and position it
      up or down to reveal if it was
      A MONO OR STEREO
      RECORD INSIDE.

      There's no evidence that this was done
      for this release.

      Outer cover slick was pasted
      onto a white gatefold jacket.

      The record industry phased out
      MONO PRESSINGS
      beginning in 1968.

      NO BAR CODE
      ON THE BACK COVER
      further confirms that this is
      indeed an original copy.

      This pressing weighs in @ 1 LB./2 OZ.

      In December, 1967, I was given
      a stereo copy (which I still have)
      for a Christmas present.

      The original 1967 cover has slightly yellowed
      but, otherwise,
      THIS SEALED ALBUM
      EXACTLY MATCHES THE
      ORIGINAL 1967 PRESSING -
      FRONT, BACK & SPINE !!

      I also referenced the excellent book by
      BEATLES' EXPERT,
      BRUCE SPIZER
      for further confirmation.

      Vibrant cover color with vinyl in
      SEALED MINT CONDITION -
      IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER
      THAN THAT !!

      Since much of the price is determined
      by the item being sealed,
      IT WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR RETURN
      IF YOU OPEN IT !!

      There's a very slight tear in the shrink
      on the back cover
      that does not reach the open end seam.

      Don't sleep on this
      "HOLY GRAIL"
      ORIGINAL
      CAPITOL PRESSING !!!
