THE SLEEVE
THE FRONT LAMINATED ERNEST. J. DAY SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION. THIS IS ONE OF THE NICEST ORIGINAL SLEEVES FOR THIS LANDMARK ALBUM THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN!! THE LAMINATED FRONT IS STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL AND APPEARS TO BE IN NEARLY NEW CONDITION. I CAN JUST SEE THE SLIGHTEST HINT OF RING WEAR AND THERE ONE OR TWO TINY WRINKLES IN THE LAMINATE. THE BACK IS WHITE AND AGAIN NEARLY PERFECT WITH JUST SOME VERY SLIGHT STAINING. THE FLIP-BACKS ARE ALL SUPERB. THE EDGES AND CORNERS ARE ALL PRISTINE. THERE IS NOT EVEN ANY RUBBING TO THE CORNERS. THE SPINE IS PERFECT - STRAIGHT AND ALL TEXT IS 100% LEGIBLE. YOU WILL BE HARD PUSHED TO EVER SEE A NICER SLEEVE AND IT WILL LOOK FANTASTIC ON YOUR RACK!
THE INNER SLEEVE
THE TISSUE-LINED "USE EMITEX" INNER SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH SOME VERY MINOR WEAR, CREASING AND DISCOLOURATION.
THE VINYL
VISUALLY THE VERY HEAVY, GLOSSY, BLACK VINYL APPEARS TO BE IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION, WITH JUST A HANDFUL OF TINY SLIGHT MARKS. I HAVE JUST FINISHED LISTENING TO THIS CLASSIC ALBUM ON MY PRO-JECT RPM4 AND I CAN CONFIRM THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPERB THROUGHOUT. I DID NOTICE A VERY SLIGHT WARP ON MY TURNTABLE BUT THIS DID NOT AFFECT PLAYBACK AT ALL. I DETECTED A COUPLE OF CLICKS DURING THE RUN-IN FOR TRACK 1 ON SIDE 1. OTHERWISE THIS GREAT ALBUM SOUNDED AMAZING - THE BEATLES IS GLORIOUS MONO!!
THE LABELS
THE ICONIC BLACK & YELLOW PARLOPHONE LABELS ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH SOME LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS AND A FEW TINY STAINS. THE SIDE TWO LABEL HAS AN EMBOSSED "KT" TAX CODE. BOTH LABELS CARRY THE TEXT “THE PARLOPHONE Co. LTD. ...” & “RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED 1963”.
