Description
The very first UK release of The Beatles "Magical Mystery Tour" musicassette in June 1973, in the dusty, metallic all-gold inlay design in very good condition. Plays perfectly. Identified by its lime green labels, and 1 and 7/8ths ips circular mark on the top of the spine as well as its dusty metallic gold inlay.
Curiously this inlay has a spelling misprint on the foldover. Available is spelt "avaliable" in the text "ALSO AVALIABLE ON 8 TRACK CARTRIDGE". Additionally the cassette shell is the screw type last used on the original first release cassette of Sgt Pepper in 1968, and was the type produced for EMI by the Dutch firm, Phillips, before EMI opened their own tape facilities at Hayes in Middlesex in July 1970.
The black box EMI/Parlophone logo is missing, although there is nothing too unusual about that, as a shortage of expensive letterpress blocks resulted in a number of Beatles cassette albums having it omitted.
Posting in the UK and worldwide.
